Choose the deadline for your U of T entry route
Your campus choice matters before you submit anything. St. George, Mississauga and Scarborough share the main January 15 application date. They don't share every later task. A Rotman choice belongs to St. George. A Management choice at Scarborough has its own form. Mississauga Computer Science now appears on the university's supplement list. Don't treat a campus name as a minor detail. Put it beside the degree name in your calendar so you follow the right invitation when it arrives.
The central 2027 table covers Undergraduate, International and Internal applications. These dates also apply outside Ontario high schools. Engineering's faculty page also separates Ontario, non-Ontario and transfer applicants. Former U of T students use the Internal Transfer Application. If you've never registered at U of T, apply through OUAC for Engineering. Transfer review takes place in June in that yearless timetable. You're in Grade 12? Don't wait for that later review season.
Some degrees need earlier university study. These include Nursing, Medical Radiation Sciences and Physician Assistant. The central page names all of them. The Medical Radiation Sciences form is due February 1. That row isn't an extension for first-year Life Sciences or Engineering. If you're leaving high school, start with the entry route in the U of T hub. Then use the relevant program page to check your courses. This deadline guide keeps the submission calendar separate from admission marks.

Early consideration has two parts
Apply by November 7 to start early review. You still need the documents you have. You must also submit any required extra form. The central page recommends December 1 for that next work. It says eligible files can enter the first round and later rounds. Rotman also names December 1. Its cutoff is 11:59 p.m. EST. Its review takes time. Late forms may miss the March round. An early form can get an earlier review. It doesn't promise an offer. It doesn't lower the entry standard.
Scarborough's Fall 2027 page gives a different date: December 2. This includes its Supplementary Application Form and early documents. That's a real difference between official pages. We haven't changed either date to make them agree. Ask Scarborough which instruction controls your file. You can aim to finish before the earlier date. That's your own planning choice. It isn't a new university rule. Record the campus's written answer if its portal gives a different deadline again.
Did you finish Grade 11 outside Ontario? Now at an Ontario school? The central page explains your next step. It suggests applying by November 7. Follow the portal steps for Grade 11 results by December 1. Your current school location doesn't erase that earlier education history. Tell the application where you studied. Don't assume every prior mark will arrive in the same way as your current Ontario grades.

Engineering finishes earlier than most supplements
U of T's 2027 calendar puts Engineering documents and the Engineering Supplemental Application on January 15. That's the same day as the main application. The faculty warns that it can take up to a week to receive your OUAC record. If you apply at the last moment, you may run out of time. You still need to finish the faculty's next steps. Set your own earlier work date. Keep the submission receipt for the main application and the faculty item as two separate records.
The faculty's yearless instructions add useful group detail. Ontario files complete by December 1 can enter February or March review. It says files completed after January 15 aren't considered until May. At a high school outside Ontario? Its early route promises a response by April 30. All required items must arrive by December 1. This includes English evidence. These statements don't print a new-cycle year. Read them as latest available and confirm the terms in the Engineering Applicant Portal for Fall 2027.

Other campus forms, Music and auditions
The central 2027 table confirms February 1 for several forms. These include Daniels' One Idea and St. George Computer Science. Rotman, Kinesiology and required Scarborough forms share that date. UTSC lists Management and double degrees. It also lists co-op International Development Studies. Music Industry & Technology and Paramedicine need the form too. Not every degree asks for the same thing. Read the task tied to your choice. The U of T supplement guide explains the different items without writing your responses. The Rotman guide keeps the business requirements together.
Music recommends applying December 1. Its questionnaire has a January 8, 2027 early target and January 15 final deadline. Jazz prescreening is also January 15. Recorded auditions and Composition or Music Technology & Digital Media portfolios are due January 31. Live auditions run February 1 to March 3. The entrance theory exam is April 9 for applicants recommended for admission. Music documents need a question to the faculty: the central table says January 15; Music recommends February 1. Those official instructions differ.
UTM Computer Science's own item page confirms February 1, 2027. That fills the central table's missing row without borrowing a date from St. George. UTM Theatre & Drama audition registration opens November 11, 2026 and closes January 26, 2027. Components run in February or March, with results in March or April. Full details are due in November. Music's guide also gives February 18, 2027 for UTAPS Need Navigator, recommended for Ontario residents. That financial-support task isn't the Awards Profile.

Scholarship deadlines can come before early admission
For National and Pearson awards, apply for admission by October 16, 2026. Both require that step. Waiting until November 7 would miss that award-linked step. Their school nomination deadline was October 9. National nominees then submit the award form by October 30. The private reference is due November 6. Pearson's award application and documents are due November 6. If you're already nominated, check that sequence now. Missed the school nomination? Contact the award office. A January admission form doesn't reopen the award.
Both award pages contain older FAQ dates beside the new timeline. National's nomination FAQ still describes the 2026 cycle and October 10, 2025. Pearson's FAQ also retains an old nomination date and results in 2026. The table shows the dated 2027 steps. It flags those old dates too. Pearson's Fall 2027 results schedule isn't confirmed by that old FAQ. Both pages ban generative AI for undergraduate award content. Write every award response yourself. Planning support must respect that rule.
The Awards Profile is a different form. It's for eligible final-year Canadian citizens, permanent residents and protected persons. It can match you to awards beyond marks. It isn't mandatory for admission. UTSC confirms February 1, 2027. The central page still says typically early February. It says the 2026 deadline has passed. Other campus dates remain unconfirmed. Use the U of T financial-aid guide for eligibility and the National Scholarship guide for its nomination process.

Residence interest isn't the deposit
UTM admissions confirms January 15 to March 31, 2027 for residence interest. Rotman confirms March 31 at 11:59 p.m. EST. That interest step doesn't complete every later housing task. UTM Housing still shows a 2026-27 schedule. The full first-year form was due June 8. The deposit was due July 3 at 5 p.m. EST. Those last-cycle dates are shown for context only. We can't turn them into June and July 2027 commitments.
At Scarborough, the Fall 2027 admissions page says accept your residence offer by June 12. Housing still labels its cycle 2026-27. Its deposits were due June 12 and August 6 at noon Toronto time. It also keeps June 2 for accepting admission. Current admissions says June 1, 2027 for Ontario high school students. Ask Housing about the new deposit calendar. St. George college deposit deadlines are also offer-specific here. The U of T residence guide explains campus options; your housing offer controls the payment task.

If a deadline passes, check which door closed
U of T cancels forms received from OUAC after a program closes. There's no refund. A saved choice or successful payment doesn't prove the degree still has space. Documents received late may be reviewed as space allows. Those are different rules. Missed a date? Contact the campus. Name your exact program and missing item. Ask whether the application is still open and whether the file can be completed. Don't pay for a closed program on the strength of a general late-application rumour.
An offer also has its own reply date. The central decision season starts in January and runs to late May. Some programs or groups can get summer decisions. UTSC confirms June 1, 2027 for current Ontario high school students. Engineering's yearless schedule says May 1 for high school applicants outside Ontario. It says June 1 for Ontario applicants. Treat a personal offer as the controlling instruction. The Ontario deadlines comparison and application opening guide explain the wider cycle, but neither extends a U of T task.

What to do this week
It's October 13. The October 16 award-linked admission date is close. Start with any nomination you already hold. Then work through the early-review steps for your actual campus. A complete plan should tell you what to submit and which office to ask about a missing date.
- If nominated for National or Pearson, finish the October 16 admission step and keep the award deadlines separate.
- Choose your campus and program. Check prerequisites in the Engineering, Computer Science or other program guide.
- Ask UTSC about December 1 versus December 2, or Music about January 15 versus February 1 documents.
- Set a November 1 recheck for housing deposits, Awards Profile gaps and yearless faculty response rules.
