Guelph Student Profile Form

Guelph's optional Student Profile Form lets high-school applicants describe leadership, citizenship, activities, and circumstances that affected grades. It is considered in the final offer round only when an average falls within a discretionary range of the program cutoff, at most 5%; it does not guarantee admission and does not replace a mandatory program form.

Writing format

Optional Student Profile Form about activities and academic context

What to prepare

  1. 1Choose an activity, role, or responsibility and explain what you did and how it prepared you for university life.
  2. 2If circumstances beyond your control affected your grades, state the context and its academic effect plainly rather than relying on vague hardship language.
  3. 3Use examples that show growth or contribution, including family or community responsibilities when relevant; the form is an opportunity for context, not a substitute transcript.

How to approach the writing

Before you submit

The published SPF deadline is April 1, 2027. Guelph says no third-party documentation is required and that the form is used for admission only, not to fulfill offer conditions.
