How Trent actually handles things
From the OUAC’s Guidance Dialogues Resource Guide (Spring 2026), which OUAC publishes for guidance counsellors rather than students. Read the original. Policies change — confirm anything you’re about to act on.
- If you repeat a course
For courses taken more than once, we will use the highest final grade to calculate the admission average and scholarship eligibility.
- Summer school, night school, e-learning and private school
We will accept credits from any institution that is accredited by the Ontario Ministry of Education.
Students who are completing courses outside of their regular day school must notify the Admissions Office using the Intention to Upgrade Form on their myTrent portal.
- Your Grade 11 marks
We will consider Grade 11 grades for early offers of admission. Supplemental Application
None of our programs require supplemental applications. Ranking on OUAC Application
We do not consider application ranking when making offers of admission. Tuition Deposit
