Toronto Metropolitan University Scholarships & Financial Aid: 2027 Guide

TMU's published 2026–2027 full-time undergraduate ranges depend on faculty and fee status. Ontario-student faculty ranges run from $7,397–$9,958 in Science to $11,883–$11,939 in the Ted Rogers School of Management. International faculty ranges run from $38,693–$41,506 in Community Services to $44,476–$44,532 in Ted Rogers. These faculty ranges are planning estimates, not one price for every program; residence, food, books, transit, and personal expenses are additional.

Under TMU's current Fall 2026 guaranteed and renewable scholarship program, eligible students attending a Canadian secondary school receive $750 in year one with an 86%–89.99% final admission average, $1,500 with 90%–94.99%, or $3,000 with 95% or higher. The potential four-year totals are $3,000, $6,000, and $12,000 respectively, subject to the current eligibility and renewal rules.

Yes, under the current 2026–2027 program. Eligible first-time post-secondary students attending a Canadian secondary school are automatically considered for the guaranteed and renewable entrance scholarship using their final admission average. Canadian citizens, permanent residents, protected persons, and international students can qualify when they meet all current enrolment, attendance, application, and grade conditions.

TMU had not published a complete Fall 2027 entrance-scholarship calendar when this guide was reviewed on August 2, 2026. February 17, 2026 was the application deadline for the President's, Terence Grier, and International Student Leadership awards for Fall 2026; it is not a Fall 2027 deadline. Monitor TMU's live scholarships page and AwardSpring when the next cycle opens instead of reusing the prior date.

TMU currently lists the President's Entrance Scholarship at $10,000 per year, renewable for up to four years for a potential total of $40,000. The current program lists 12 awards and assesses academic accomplishment, leadership, original thought, and creative ability. It requires a separate application and uses cycle-specific admission and AwardSpring deadlines.

Use AwardSpring after receiving the credentials needed to access TMU systems. Submit the general application, complete the profile and budget information where requested, and follow up on matched opportunities and their extra requirements. TMU says AwardSpring contains more than 1,400 scholarships, awards, and bursaries. Some entrance awards are automatic, while prestigious, faculty, donor, identity-based, and need-based opportunities can require separate materials and deadlines.

Yes. Eligible Ontario residents can use OSAP at TMU. The 2026–2027 application is open, and TMU says document review can take approximately six to eight weeks. Current deadlines include October 21, 2026 for a fall-only application and March 2, 2027 for fall/winter or winter-only funding, with supporting-document deadlines afterward. A Fall 2027 entrant must use the later 2027–2028 schedule once it is published.

International students can be eligible for TMU's guaranteed and renewable entrance scholarship and selected competitive awards. The current International Student Leadership Award is $10,000 for up to 53 Fall 2026 recipients. TMU also lists the President's Entrance Scholarship and faculty or donor opportunities. TMU states that its entrance scholarships do not cover full international tuition, so applicants should compare award values against the current international fee range and build a separate living-cost budget.

Some can, but TMU's current terms cap the combined overall annual value of the listed entrance scholarships at $15,000. The group includes the guaranteed and renewable entrance scholarship, President's, Terence Grier, International Student Leadership, Pierre Lassonde, selected Ted Rogers, and English Language Institute awards. Students must also follow each award's individual eligibility and renewal rules.

For students admitted in 2023–2024 or later, TMU's current renewal table links the annual value to cumulative GPA: $750 at 3.85–4.00, $1,500 at 4.01–4.14, and $3,000 at 4.15 or higher. Students must also meet the full-time enrolment, course-intention, academic-standing, and other current terms. Renewal is assessed annually and the amount can rise or fall with CGPA.

Career Boost is TMU's on-campus student employment program. For Fall 2026 and Winter 2027, an eligible hired undergraduate can earn up to $2,500 per semester. The domestic undergraduate program requires approval, full-time study, Ontario residence during the work period, demonstrated unmet need, and other current conditions; TMU also has a separate Career Boost International route. Approval does not guarantee a job, so do not count the maximum earnings until hired.
