Tutorial #4: How to Respond to an Offer of Admission from an Ontario University (Transcript – Text Only)
Title Screen – The Ontario Universities’ Application Centre presents: How to Respond to an Offer of Admission from an Ontario University
Welcome to the Ontario Universities’ Application Centre website: www.ouac.on.ca.
This video will show you how to view your active Ontario university offers and how to accept or decline offers.
To view your active offers, log back in to your OUAC account.
On the Hub, you will see an Offers button that shows all of the active offers you have received.
Click “View Offers” to go directly to the My Offers section in your application.
Your offers or alternates will be displayed. Select the eye icon to view and respond to the offer.
Read the details of your offer.
Offer Response: Accept or decline the offer (if that option is available).
At this point, if you have further edits to make to your application, select “I want to make more changes” to return to your application.
On the My Offers page, you will see your response status listed as “Accepted”.
When you are done making edits to your application, go to Review and Payment and follow the steps to submit your response to the university.
After you respond to your offer, if you have no further changes, select “I’m ready to submit my response/changes”.
You will see your response in the Review Summary. Review your response and any other updates you made. Continue to the Declaration to confirm your application information is accurate.
Scroll to the bottom and select “I Verify and Agree” to submit your response to the university.
Reminder: If you made any changes to your application that require payment, you must pay by credit or debit card.
Once you submit your response (and pay any necessary application fees), you will receive a confirmation number and a summary of changes via email.
If you do not receive this email, your response was not submitted – please try again.
We recommend that you log back in to your account the next day to ensure that your responses were saved in your application.
Now you have successfully responded to an Ontario university offer of admission.
Thank you for watching!
