Part 1: OUAC DatasetsPart 1: OUAC Datasets
a) Open the OUAC e-mail you will receive from AERO
b) Create folder ‘postsec08’ in your ‘C’ hard drive.
c) Save the files in the OUAC e-mail to the folder
‘postsec08’.
d) Open SPSS. Then open all the SPSS syntax files
in the ‘postsec08’ folder.
e) Run the file ‘read ouac file.sps’
This will read the text file
BEXT_66052_2008.txt
Which has a selection of OUAC
application and confirmation records
Note: Your file for 2008 should be the same,
except that ‘66052’ would be
replaced with your Board ID number.

limited analysis based on school, gender,
age of student.
Disadvantage: student did not necessarily
attend the board and school in the 2007-8
school year.
