Ontario College-University Transfer Guide

The accuracy of the Ontario College-University Transfer Guide (OCUTG) depends on the receiving institutions entering their agreements and updating them as circumstances change.  The CUCC has always monitored this activity and encourages institutions to maintain the currency of their agreements in order to provide students with the best information possible.

Over the past year, CUCC conducted a review of all agreements in order to eliminate any duplication, errors or other erroneous information.  CUCC also undertook an analysis of the agreements in place as of April 2009 and is able to report the following information:

College to University Transfer

Type A:  54 agreements providing direct entry from college to university with block credits

  • 22 bilateral agreements

  • 3 multilateral agreements with 2-3 colleges

  • 29 multilateral agreements with 5 or more colleges

Type B: 267 agreements providing direct entry from college to university with a range of course credits

  • 248 bilateral agreements (includes 15 pathways related to collaborative programs)

  • 8 multilateral agreements with 2 colleges

  • 11 multilateral agreements with 10 or more colleges

College to University transfer agreements by partnership

  • 270 bilateral agreements

  • 40 multilateral agreements with 5 or more colleges

College-University Collaborative Programs
