[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Canadian universities have application requirements to begin with that are based on test scores and grades, so that limits the number of applicants. Once you do apply, the process is mostly based just on scores and grades as well. [/quote] So...same as US [/quote] No. Many US university admissions include athletics and ECs as important decision factors for admissions. [/quote] So, they don’t recruit for sports, but UT asked for a list of ECs when my kid applied. There were also 3 essays and teacher LORs. Maybe they don’t care about it…but it was still required. Felt awfully similar to applying to UC schools as the closest US approximation. I feel like the other difference is these schools are all on a rolling admissions basis that actually goes through Spring…but once they fill up for the year by program, they just cut off the ability to apply to that program.[/quote]
