Next steps for admitted students

To confirm your acceptance or decline of this offer of admission, you must sign, date and upload the completed SGS Confirmation Form to the Grad App Portal by the deadline specified in your offer letter. Failure to confirm your decision by the deadline will result in a revoke of your offer of admission. 

A $500 non-refundable tuition deposit is required to secure your spot in the MPP program for this fall. Payment is made through ACORN via credit card only. The deposit is automatically put towards your tuition once you matriculate and it is posted to your Student Account. 

International students are highly encouraged to apply for their Canadian study permit as soon as possible using the Letter of Acceptance for Study Permit Application contained in the SGS Offer Letter package. International students are also encouraged to apply for their co-op work permit at the same time as their study permit.  A co-op work permit allows students to work full-time with a Canadian organization during their internship period.  Even if you are not planning to do your internship with a Canadian organization, we have seen how quickly things can change and strongly suggest all students have a co-op work permit.  This does not cost any additional fee. In the study permit application, students can indicate that work is an essential component of the program.  When asked to provide documents for your study permit application, you will also be asked to upload a document supporting that work is an essential component of the program.  You will need to upload a letter of support for the co-op work permit which can be obtained by contacting Katie Boomgaardt at katie.boomgaardt@utoronto.ca

Starting May 1st you can make an appointment with the TCard Office to get your Student ID (TCard) and activate your UTORid/UToronto email address. International students may get their TCard in advance of getting their study permit provided they have an active passport. You can activate your UTORid/UToronto email before arriving in Toronto. You can pick up your TCard when you have arrived in Toronto. You need an active UTORid/UToronto email to access Quercus and Housing resources. 

There are various housing options for students studying at the University of Toronto. If you wish to stay on-campus, Graduate House has dedicated housing for graduate students. However, space is limited. Most graduate students live off campus. The University has an Off-Campus Housing website to help students find housing. 

If you qualify for provincial funding like OSAP, you should apply as soon as the portal opens for new applicants. You are also encouraged to seek other financial resources to fund your degree, such as student loans from your preferred banking institution. The University of Toronto works closely with Scotiabank but students may seek loans from any bank they prefer.

Tuition is charged to student's ACORN accounts mid-July. You must pay the minimum amount to register by August 30th. If you are receiving OSAP or other provincial or government funding, you can defer your tuition on ACORN. If you have received a scholarship greater than the minimum amount to register, you may defer your tuition through the MPP Program Office by emailing Rejeanne Puran at rejeanne.puran@utoronto.ca a signed copy of the Register Without Payment Form.

The Econ and Math-Stats Prep courses aim to introduce students to key concepts, in preparation of the Fall MPP1 term. More information about the prep courses is sent out to incoming MPPs in August.

The University of Toronto begins posting TA positions for the upcoming academic year in June. TA positions are typically awarded to PhD students, but quite often Master's students are also welcome to apply for undergraduate TAships. Other positions, like RAships and on-campus work, can found on the CLNx website. (You must have an active UTORid to access this site.)

Newly admitted applicants must send their final official transcripts to the MPP program. E-transcripts must be sent from the institution directly to the MPP admissions email: mpp.admissions@utoronto.ca. (Digital transcripts are preferred).

Hard copies in sealed envelopes may be sent to:
