The Ontario College Application Service (OCAS) is a non-profit corporation created in 1991 by the Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology and Institutes of Technology and Advanced Learning in the province of Ontario, Canada.[1]

OCAS represents Ontario's 24 Colleges of Applied Arts and Technology (CAAT). Three non-CAAT institutions also use the ontariocolleges.ca service for their applications.[2] The centralized platform provides application-to-college services in English and French through its ontariocolleges.ca brand.[3]

In 2017, OCAS introduced its International Application Service (IAS) as a new platform for use by international departments at Ontario's public colleges. To date, over half of Ontario's colleges as well as one Ontario university, use the OCAS IAS.[4]

It also offers a centralized data warehouse of applicant information for colleges, high schools and government.[5]

OCAS is located in Guelph, Ontario.
