This enables us to select applicants with the highest likelihood of success. (Range: 9.9 - 27.1; Average is 16.1) Adjustment Factor Spreadsheet
There are various factors outside of your Grade 12 Admissions Average that can impact your chances of acceptance in Waterloo Engineering. This section will aim to acknowledge these differences in one's application through considering one's AIF, video interview score, as well as their work experiences and shadow day participation.

Disclaimer: This site is simply an admissions simulator and should not be taken seriously! The data used is out of date due to lack of updates from Waterloo. For example, the adjustment factors are updated each year and the only list available is 2 years out of date. The blog about AIF scores is six years old and does not reflect how AIFs are currently scored. It is also not possible for applicants to give themselves a score on the interview without knowing how interviews are scored. The calculations here are as accurate as the story of a Canadian Goose learning to program in Javascript to bring you this website. Use this site at your own discretion. You have been warned!
