Admissions Planning
Fall 2027 admissions planning
York University admission requirements and current averages
Ontario high-school applicants generally need an OSSD and six Grade 12 4U or 4M courses, including ENG4U and every prerequisite for the selected program. York has published current program requirements and Fall 2026 ranges, but its complete Fall 2027 program and supplementary-deadline tables are not yet available.
Ontario academic base
OSSD + six 4U/M
The six-course average must include the program's required Grade 12 courses.
OUAC Group A deadline
January 15, 2027
This applies to current Ontario high-school applicants for Fall 2027.
Typical decision timing
Within six weeks
York's current FAQ says this begins after the admissions team has every required document.
Cycle-label warning
Current York ranges are planning evidence, not Fall 2027 guarantees
York's live selector currently publishes program averages, prerequisites, and offer-maintenance conditions for the present cycle. Competition and capacity can raise the actual admission level. Dates such as the current February 3 Schulich and AMPD supplement deadline belong to Fall 2026 and must not be relabelled as 2027.

The table uses York's current admission selector. “Current range” describes York's published planning guidance, while “offer condition” describes the final average currently needed to keep an offer. Neither is a guaranteed Fall 2027 cut-off.
