About this award

You can receive a variable amount up to a maximum of $10,000. As this is a scholarship, not a loan, you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are an Ontario resident entering U of T Engineering with strong grades and financial need. It is not open to international students. No deadline is posted on the award's official page — to be considered you must submit a U of T Need Navigator application, and the page points to the University Registrar's Office website for details. Check there for this year's date. Beyond financial need and academic achievement, selection criteria aren't published — ask University of Toronto (Faculty of Engineering) how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask University of Toronto (Faculty of Engineering) during your application how the money will reach you — some awards pay students directly, others apply funds to tuition. Confirm this so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with University of Toronto (Faculty of Engineering) whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

To qualify, you must be a resident of Ontario entering the Faculty of Applied Science & Engineering at U of T, and you must submit an application through the Need Navigator.
