I have applied to programs at several Ontario colleges and have been told that I need to write the Health Occupations Aptitude Examination (HOAE) for admission to those programs. If I write the HOAE at one of these colleges, will my results be transferred to all of the colleges to which I have applied?
The short answer is: Yes. However, each college has its own policy for transferring HOAE results to other colleges. Please see the table below for an outline of how to have your results transferred between the colleges to which you have applied.

If you have written the HOAE at Algonquin, we will automatically forward your results to all of the other colleges to which you have applied on Feb. 23. You do not need to request this transfer. |
No Charge. Please note that Georgian and Ridgetown charge a $15 transfer fee to receive these results. |
|
|
Applicants who write at Georgian are asked to contact the publisher of the HOAE at info@psbtests.com to request a transfer from. The form is sent to you via email. Complete and return the form via email. Your HOAE results will be sent to Algonquin within 24 hours. Please note; we must receive your results by Feb. 23 to be eligible for admission to your program.
|
PSB charges $15 US for each college to which you wish to have your HOAE results transferred. |

Applicants who write at Durham are asked to sign a transfer waiver, which you can find at http://www.durhamcollege.ca under “Applicant Requirements”. Durham will then fax the results to Algonquin. Please note; Algonquin must receive your results by Feb. 23 to be eligible for admission to your program.

Applicants who write at St Clair must request that their HOAE results be sent to Algonquin. Please note; Algonquin must receive your results by Feb. 23 to be eligible for admission to your program.
|
No Charge |
|
|
Ridgetown does not begin HOAE testing until February 28, which is after Algonquin’s Feb. 23 deadline for receiving HOAE results. If you wish to write at Ridgetown before Feb. 23, you must ask Ridgetown to administer the HOAE on behalf of Algonquin by requesting to complete an admissions assessment outside of Ottawa. See the instructions found in the BOOKING AN ASSESSMENT APPOINTMENT section found on this website.

Once I’ve done my assessment, when can I get my results?
This is often the first question that applicants ask as soon as they have finished their admissions assessment. Once you complete your assessment, your results are sent to the Admissions Department and/or the selection committee of the program(s) to which you have applied. These results are used to help determine whether you meet each program’s admissions requirements. The Admissions Department will then send you a letter indicating whether or not you have been given an offer of admission to those programs. It may take several weeks to receive this letter. If you would like to receive the raw scores from your admissions assessment, these will be available to you through the Test Centre after March 9, 2009. Please consult this web site after that date for the instructions to request your results.
