Both Conestoga & McMaster are considered among the best institutions in the region. However, both these universities are selective to varying degrees at granting admissions to students. Therefore, interested candidates must perform really well in academics as well as university entrance exams to have the best possible chance of admission.

The Conestoga College acceptance rate stands at around 85%, while that of McMaster University is around 59%. It can be inferred that McMaster is relatively more selective than Conestoga College.
