Get Started
Accept your offer on the OUAC website
Your offer will include a specific deadline to accept your offer on OUAC, don't miss it!
International students are also required to pay a $1,000 CAD Admissions Deposit when accepting their offer. Deposits are non-refundable and are applied to the first term tuition. Visit the JOIN U of T website for information and instructions.
Apply for a study permit (international students only)
Most foreign nationals need a study permit to study in Canada. We strongly recommend you apply for or upgrade your study permit as soon as possible. Our International Education Centre can help you with this.
Apply for transfer credit (transfer credit students only)
If you qualify as a transfer student with eligible transfer credit, your offer of admission will explicitly instruct you to submit a Transfer Credit Application and pay the $30 processing fee. This should be submitted as soon as you receive an offer of admission to U of T Mississauga. See below for details.
Transfer Explorer
If you are applying from a Canadian university, you can use Transfer Explorer to see whether the University of Toronto has previously awarded transfer credit for courses you have taken, are taking, or plan to take. If one or more of your courses does not appear on Transfer Explorer, it likely hasn’t been assessed previously and the relevant materials (course outlines/syllabi) would need to be reviewed to determine if transfer credit can be granted. Transfer Explorer course equivalencies do not represent a guarantee that students will receive transfer credit.
Transfer Credit Assessment
We have put together several resources for students to understand their transfer credit assessment:
Transfer Credit Information Sheet
You may also wish to speak with an Academic Advisor if you require assistance with selecting your courses after receiving your transfer credit assessment.
Upper-year studies
If you have been admitted to upper-year studies, this means that based on the number of courses you have completed or have in progress at the time of your admission, we believe that it is likely that you will receive 4.0 or more transfer credits, making you an upper year standing student. Your exact year of study will only be determined once your mandatory transfer credit assessment is complete. Note that you may still be required to take first year and/or prerequisite courses at U of T Mississauga for your program of interest.
Applying for transfer credits
We recommend that you pay the $30 fee and submit your transfer credit application as soon as you receive an offer of admission.
Your eligible courses will be assessed for equivalency, and your year of standing will be determined based on the number of transfer credits awarded. Depending on the result of your transfer credit assessment, you then may be eligible to apply to a specific program of study. For more details on important transfer credit policies and procedures, please visit https://www.utm.utoronto.ca/future-students/transfer-credits/.
Ontario CAAT and CEGEP: Applicants to Commerce and Management are limited to a maximum of 3.5 generic transfer credits.
CEGEP: Business, Commerce/Management, and Economics courses completed outside of institutions recognized by Universities Canada are not eligible for transfer credit.
University: Business, Commerce, or Management courses are only eligible for transfer credit consideration if they were completed at a Universities Canada member institution.
