Has any of the incoming students received any scholarships? I’m also wondering what they mean by “academic merit”. Is it based on GPA based or post interview score (80% interview + 20% prereq GPA)

I am wondering how difficult it is to match to U of T as a student from McGill, for IM or surgical specialties. Carms data show that 13-18 McGill student match to U of T every year, but I am wondering how many of those students match into IM or surgical specialties. I am trying to decide whether I should aim to do my electives in TO or spread them out across multiple ON schools...

Thank you ! You are right, except that this unfortunately does not apply to studying medicine outside Quebec (this is mentioned within specific eligible program requirements on the AFE website, and it also mentioned here on U of T's website under "Information specific to Quebec residents": https://md.utoronto.ca/financial-aid). So it honestly worries me that I won't be eligible for any government financial aid (from QC or ON). Couldn't agree more

Thank you for your response. That was my thought initially, but then I saw that in order to apply for OSAP, you must "have Ontario residency, that is, have lived in Ontario for at least 12 consecutive months without attending full-time postsecondary school." I know you can do the above to become an Ontario resident, but I am not sure if that alone would allow me to apply for OSAP...

I am a Quebec resident, and I recently realized that medical studies outside Quebec are not eligible for government financial aid. What options are available for students in my situation? Would it be possible to become an Ontario resident in that case and apply for OSAP (or at least get the federal aid portion)? I am wondering if anyone was in the same boat. I would appreciate any assistance!

A few people I know have been saying that there will be a delay in the release of admission decisions. We've already seen this happen at Dalhousie this week. What are your thoughts on this?
