Admissions Planning
Fall 2027 admissions planning
University of Winnipeg requirements for Ontario students
Ontario applicants need six Grade 12 U or M courses, including ENG4U, and a minimum 65% admission average. UWinnipeg calculates the out-of-province average from English plus the two highest academic admission courses, but programs in Science, Business, Economics, and Mathematics add exact senior-course prerequisites.
Ontario baseline
65% + six 4U/M
ENG4U is required, and the chosen major can add MHF4U, MCV4U, SCH4U, or SPH4U.
Application route
Direct to UWinnipeg
The University of Winnipeg uses its own portal rather than OUAC.
Fall 2027 dates
Not yet labelled
The live pages publish standing term dates, not a confirmed Fall 2027 calendar.
Cycle warning
Do not relabel standing deadlines as Fall 2027 dates
The current site lists July 2 for most domestic fall applications, March 1 as the recommended Integrated Education date, and June 15 as the extended international fall date. None is attached to a Fall 2027 year label. Use them to plan the order of work, then verify the cycle before submitting.
Ontario preparation by program
| Program | Published minimum | Ontario courses | Planning note |
|---|---|---|---|
| General admission | 65% average | Ontario high-school graduation, six Grade 12 U/M courses, including ENG4U | UWinnipeg calculates the out-of-province average from the required English plus the two highest academic admission courses. The published floor is not a competitive guarantee. |
| Arts and Human Rights | 65% general minimum | ENG4U; no additional high-school prerequisite | Human Rights is housed in Global College and offers local and international practicum routes later in the degree. |
| Business, Economics, and Economics and Finance | 65% general minimum | ENG4U plus MHF4U | UWinnipeg maps Manitoba Applied Mathematics 40S to Ontario MHF4U. |
| Applied Computer Science | 65% general minimum | ENG4U plus MHF4U | The program page says senior mathematics may be required; the live prerequisite list names Applied or Pre-Calculus Mathematics 40S. |
| Biology, Bioanthropology, Biochemistry, and Neuroscience | 65% general minimum | ENG4U, SCH4U, and MHF4U or MCV4U | Pre-Calculus is required for some four-year or honours routes even where Applied Mathematics can start the major. |
| Environmental Science (BSc) | 65% general minimum | ENG4U, SCH4U, and MHF4U or MCV4U | The Chemistry stream specifically requires the Pre-Calculus equivalent. |
| Mathematics | 65% general minimum | ENG4U plus MHF4U or MCV4U | UWinnipeg lists Pre-Calculus Mathematics 40S, which maps to either Ontario course. |
| Physics | 65% general minimum | ENG4U, SPH4U, and MHF4U or MCV4U | SCH4U is also required for the Physical Chemistry stream. |
| Athletic Therapy | General admission, then competitive later entry | ENG4U; MHF4U is strongly recommended | Students first enter the four-year Kinesiology route, complete 60 prescribed credit hours with the stated grades, then apply to Athletic Therapy by April 1. |
| Integrated Education | Competitive limited enrolment | Use UWinnipeg's separate English/mathematics combination chart | The 65% general route is not the Education selection rule; March 1 is recommended and June 1 is final subject to space. |

Programs and Pathways
Program fit
Human Rights, inner-city learning, Science, and Education
UWinnipeg is especially distinctive when the city becomes part of the curriculum: Global College connects Human Rights to local and international practicums, and Urban and Inner-City Studies teaches primarily from Merchants Corner in the North End. Science students can combine laboratory disciplines in programs such as Neuroscience and Biochemistry, while Integrated Education joins two degrees over five years.
Human Rights
Western Canada first-party claim
Global College calls the major the only one of its kind in Western Canada.
Indigenous learning
3-credit requirement
Incoming undergraduates complete an approved Indigenous Course Requirement.
Athletic Therapy
Later competitive entry
Complete 60 prescribed university credits before applying to the CATA-accredited enhanced major.
Compare the main pathways
Arts and Global College
Three-year, four-year, and honours BA routes include Human Rights, Indigenous Studies, Urban and Inner-City Studies, and many humanities and social-science majors.
Selection: Most use general admission; Human Rights adds optional local or international practicum planning later.
Science
BSc options include Applied Computer Science, Biochemistry, Biology, Chemistry, Environmental Science, Mathematics, Neuroscience, Physics, and Statistics.
Selection: Match Ontario MHF4U/MCV4U, SCH4U, and SPH4U to the intended major before applying.
Integrated Education
Students work toward a BA, BSc, or Kinesiology degree and a BEd across five years, with classroom placements beginning in second year.
Selection: It is limited enrolment and competitive; applicants who are not selected may receive general admission and apply to transfer later.
Athletic Therapy
A CATA-accredited four-year BSc enhanced major with field and clinical experience.
Selection: It is not direct entry: students complete 60 prescribed credit hours, including required grades and a 3.0 GPA, before applying.
Urban and Inner-City Studies
A place-based interdisciplinary BA taught largely at Merchants Corner in Winnipeg's North End, with certificate, minor, and practicum options.
Selection: General admission applies; the curriculum connects urban theory with community-engaged learning.
Applied and joint programs
UWinnipeg and RRC Polytech combine academic and applied study in routes such as Disability Studies, joint communications, and applied environmental science.
Selection: Several use a March 1 deadline and program-specific requirements, so do not treat the general July date as universal.
A practical way to shortlist
- 1. Match every Ontario prerequisite before comparing electives.
- 2. Separate direct-entry majors from later-entry Athletic Therapy and co-op.
- 3. Decide whether downtown, community-engaged learning is a feature you will actively use.
- 4. Check the current Academic Calendar when a fact sheet and calendar differ.

Career Planning
| Experiential Learning | Check whether your target program offers co-op, internships, clinical placements, practicums, studios, field schools, or research terms. |
|---|---|
| Career Services | Compare job boards, employer partnerships, resume support, interview preparation, and alumni mentoring. |
| Research Access | For graduate-school or professional-school pathways, look for undergraduate research assistant roles and lab access. |
| Outcome Questions | Ask where graduates work or study next, and whether outcomes differ by program, co-op stream, or campus. |
University of Winnipeg applicants need to distinguish the 65% general out-of-province minimum from program prerequisites and competitive Integrated Education or later-entry Athletic Therapy, treat standing deadlines as planning markers rather than confirmed Fall 2027 dates, price per-credit tuition plus incidentals, keep first-year housing priority separate from a guarantee, and understand that co-op begins after 21 credits and does not guarantee a job. This guide keeps those decisions on one canonical, official-source-backed page.
