Post-Secondary Applications
Ontario Universities’ Application Centre (OUAC)
A student may have their OSR residing at another public, Catholic, or private school while being registered for one or more courses with us. This student will complete an OUAC 101 application through their home school. If required, we need the student to provide us with their OUAC Reference Number (YYYY-######). So we can send the course information to OUAC. We also can send all required documentation directly to OUAC on behalf of the student. There is no fee associated with this service.
A student whose OSR resides at Maple Ridge Academy, who is currently earning the OSSD, and who wishes to apply to universities through an OUAC account is considered a 101 applicant. This student may request us to establish a Personal Identification Number (PIN) for them. Once we create the PIN, it is emailed to the student along with the required information and application instructions. The student then uses this information to log in and create a 101 Application with OUAC. Once the student has applied, all academic information from Grades 11 and 12 will be uploaded to OUAC. We can provide additional guidance to students regarding the application process if required. The fee for this OUAC service is $200. Please note that this fee is separate from any fees that OUAC charges.
For students applying to post-secondary schools outside Ontario or students who are OUAC 105 applicants, we will provide post-secondary institutions with a letter of enrolment, a midterm report, and a final report. A fee of $30 is applicable for each school requested.
Ontario College Application Service (OCAS)
A student who applies to colleges through ontariocolleges.ca will require us to update their account with any courses they are taking at Maple Ridge online school. The student must submit their OCAS Application Number (YY-###-####) or OCAS Account Number to the appropriate Guidance Coordinator at Maple Ridge Academy. We will update the student’s account with a letter of enrolment, midterm grade, and final grade upon course completion. The student must add Maple Ridge Academy to the academic information on their OCAS account so that we can update the account accordingly.
