Admission Scholarships for International Students at University of Toronto, 2020-2021

There are over 4,400 undergraduate admission scholarships that the University of Toronto, along with its faculties, campuses and colleges, awards each year.

Eligible high school students (including international candidates) are automatically considered for a variety of admission scholarships when they apply to the University. Awards and cut-offs vary by division, faculty and college.  

There are also admission scholarships that require a separate application, and others that require you to complete an awards profile. 

The University of Toronto offers admission scholarships based on merit and/ or financial need. Our major awards are the National Scholarship Program, President’s Scholars of Excellence Program (PSEP). and University of Toronto Scholars Program.

Majority of our on-admission scholarship funding is awarded automatically. A separate application is not required for these merit-based admission awards. Secondary school students are automatically considered for the merit based awards as part of the U of T admission process.

U of T also offers awards on the basis of criteria such as financial need, academic merit, Indigenous background, first generation students, demonstrated leadership etc. A separate supplementary application must be submitted for these awards.

For additional information on college/faculty awards that may require an application, please refer to the individual college or faculty web site.

Students transferring from another college/university are not eligible for admission awards.
