Applying Applications
Choose your application
Apply to the university through the Ontario Universities' Application Centre (OUAC), which processes applications for all of the universities in the province. There are different applications available that depend on your status or how you plan to study at the university.
You can submit only one of these applications. If you submit more than one, your second application will be canceled without a refund. For example, if you submit an OUAC Undergraduate Application, then submit an International Application, the International Application will be cancelled and no refund will be issued.
After you submit an application
About a week after you submit your application through the OUAC, you’ll get an email acknowledging that we've received your application. The email will also include information about accessing our Join U of T applicant portal, and the Engineering Applicant Portal if you've applied to the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering. These are your personal U of T applicant websites.
Communicating with applicants
The main way we communicate with applicants is by email, so make sure your application has an active email address that you regularly check.
The university's policy on access to student records and personal privacy allows us to only communicate with the applicant, unless we have the written permission of the applicant to discuss the application with a third party, like parents and counsellors.
