Alternative Applications

If you are interested in pursuing undergraduate programs at UTM, but do not hold the published admission requirements, you may be eligible for one of our many alternative application pathways:

• Bridging Pathway: Mature students who do not meet traditional admission requirements are welcome to join us for the opportunity for successful direct admission to university level studies.
• Part-Time Students: A part-time student is one taking less than a 60% course load in a certificate, degree, or diploma program. Take a lighter load and do it part-time.
• Second Degree: What's better than one U of T degree? Two U of T degrees.
• Internal U of T Transfer: 1 University; 3 Campuses. Are you interested in transferring your U of T studies to another campus?
• Non-Degree & Visiting: Do you want to take courses at UTM for your home institution? Or perhaps you wish to take some additional courses for post-grad work or simply because you are interested in the material.
• Senior Citizen Student: If you are at least 65 years of age by the first day of the term may register with special conditions.
• Refugee Pathway: We understand that many refugees coming to Canada have unique situations and varied educational backgrounds. We can help.
