Equity & Support Services
Our equity offices guide students through any concerns that may arise during their experiences on and off campus—and include many service-focused departments, such as Health & Wellness, Accessibility Services, and Accommodated Testing Services, all of which can make referrals to partner offices and offer avenues for safe, confidential care and community. We share a mission to make certain that all constituencies are supported, empowered, and cared for. Learn more through any of our tri-campus teams.
“I came to this city not knowing a single person and I’ve been able to meet some of my best friends and build a community here. Take full advantage of all U of T and the City of Toronto have to offer, there is something for everyone and don’t be afraid to put yourself out there and experience it!”
— Jeffrey, recent alumnus from Rotman Commerce at U of T St. George
