<p>Oh, it’s only for Canadian citizens and permanent residences, at least that’s what the booklet says.</p>
<p>“For Canadian students, the University of Toronto is committed to the principle that no student admitted to a program will be unable to enroll or complete the program due to a lack of financial means. Our commitment is based on the asumption that students will first access the government aid for which they are eligible. We assess financial aid on the same basis as the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP). For a student who qualifies for the maximum OSAP loan, and who has further asssessed need not covered by OSAP, the University will provide the additional assistance in the form of a non-repayable grant for undergraduate students. The grant is delivered through a UofT program called UTAPS, University of Toronto Advance Planning for Students.”</p>
<p>As far as I know the system is kinda like the Ivy League 100% Financial Aid guarentee. However, you’ll still have to apply to OSAP first, and whatever OSAP doesn’t pick up and you are deemed to need, UTAPS will pay for the rest. I know for a fact that the most OSAP will give an individual is around $9k to $12k. (Usually at least fifty people from my school goes to UofT every year and this was their experience.) That’s clearly not enough because UofT estimates that you need about $17000 per year (quoted in the booklet), therefore they will give you the rest.</p>
<p>However I may be wrong because there are many complaints about the Ivy Leagues not giving enough, and I suppose it may also be the case at UofT. So anyone with additional info please share. :D</p>
