secondary school and received their Ontario Secondary School Diploma with either six Grade 12 U (university bound) or M (university or
college bound) or Ontario Academic Credit (OAC) courses at the end of the current school year.
Other applicants - applicants from all the other sources, including applicants from other Canadian provinces, other countries, and Ontario
residents who have not recently attended an Ontario secondary school.

2. Applications: each applicant was allowed to indicate an unlimited number of choices of universities and programs. Each choice was
considered to be a distinct application.
3. Registered applicants: applicants who applied for first-year, full-time study and who were not previously registered at an Ontario
university were designated "registered applicants" once they were admitted and registered. For more details, refer to Application
Statistics published by COU.
