University of Toronto Acceptance/Admission Rate 2019

The University admission requirements are based on academic background, regardless of age.

To see if you meet the university admission requirements, you are required to check the appropriate level of education and the program of your interest.

If you do not meet the published admission requirements you may become eligible for some programs through either the Academic Bridging Program or the Transitional Year Programme. Note that if you have previously been enrolled in degree studies, you are not eligible for these programs.

The application process to the university begins in the fall of the year before the start of studies. Be sure to start applying for scholarships immediately, as some have close deadlines.

We recommend that you send your request and the corresponding fee before the deadlines indicated. The recommended deadline for international, internal and part-time applications of OUAC 105 at the U of T is November 1, 2019.

If your applications are received from OUAC after the program closes, your request will be cancelled without a refund.

As an international student applying to U of T, the Language requirement is required if your first language is not English. Find out more about English Language Requirements.

If you hold a university degree or have completed more than two years of university-level study at another university beyond the minimum requirements, you may only apply for degree studies in a different field. 

In order to gain admission into the U of T, applicants must have good SAT I (Reasoning) or ACT (students must take the writing test if they pass the ACT).

Applicants must also have at least three subject subjects (SAT) or AP score in subjects appropriate to their proposed field of study.

Applicants must have a minimum average of 3.6/4.0. Possession of the minimum GPA requirement does not guarantee acceptance.

Based on recent admission history statistics, a cumulative grade point average of 3.8 is considered competitive.

The cumulative grade point average used to meet the academic requirements will not include your current year of study, since this information is not available during the application period.

For more information, see the GPA calculation page and the GPA weighting formula.
