“I guess it’s understandable”
No, not at all. Don’t compare them to UoT - compare them to any of the scores of American schools with comparable numbers of applicants and Jan. 1 or 15 application deadlines. These schools consider students holistically and don’t just let them in for meeting a threshold for grades, and they are still capable of delivering decisions in a timely manner. Giving students a huge range of dates for decision notifications and then not adhering to that schedule without notifying applicants of any delay is absolutely ridiculous, especially since their only promise is “by May 1” which is the deposit deadline for many other schools.

Plus you can only apply for an entrance bursary after you’ve been admitted. How long does it take them to get an aid letter to you?
