What is the OMSAS GPA?

The OMSAS GPA is a standardized 4.0-scale grade point average calculated by the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) for applications to Ontario medical schools (OMSAS), and by its sister services for dentistry (do not confuse with ORPAS for rehabilitation sciences and law). No matter which university you attended, OMSAS re-converts every course grade using one official table — so your OMSAS GPA can differ from your home-university GPA.

How it's calculated

Each course percentage is converted to a 4.0 value using the official table below, then weighted by the course's credit/weight and averaged. Enter your courses above (percentage + credit weight) for your credit-weighted OMSAS GPA. Full-year courses usually carry more weight than half courses — use your transcript's credit values.

OMSAS GPA vs. your school GPA

Because OMSAS uses fixed percentage bands, a course that was an "A" at your university can land at 3.7 or 3.9 depending on the exact mark — and OMSAS counts all attempts, with no grade forgiveness. That's why applicants calculate their OMSAS GPA separately. For US professional schools, see the AMCAS / LSAC GPA calculator instead.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the official OMSAS scale?
Yes — the conversion table matches the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC) Undergraduate Grade Conversion Table for the percentage scale. It's an unofficial calculator for planning; your verified OMSAS GPA is computed by OUAC from your official transcripts.
Does OMSAS count failed or repeated courses?
Yes. OMSAS includes all attempts with no grade forgiveness or course repeats removed, which can lower your OMSAS GPA relative to your transcript GPA. Enter every graded course for an accurate estimate.
What OMSAS GPA do I need for medical school?
It varies by school and year, but competitive Ontario medical school applicants typically have a 3.7+ OMSAS GPA; some schools weight recent years or drop your lowest year. Check each school's current requirements.
How are credits/weights handled?
OMSAS weights each course by its credit value. A full-year (1.0) course counts twice a half (0.5) course. Use the credit weights from your official transcript.
