Scholarship Overview
The University of Toronto’s School of Graduate Studies is currently accepting applications from exceptional and eligible students for the Ontario Graduate Scholarship for International Students who wish to enroll in a degree program at the University for the 2023-2024 academic session.
The scholarship program at U of T is funded jointly by the province of Ontario and the university. The Province distributes OGS awards to universities, specifying the number of awards that each university may offer to their students each year.
The OGS is worth $5,000 per session. As a result, recipients may receive $10,000 for two consecutive sessions or $15,000 for three consecutive sessions. In all cases, the awarding graduate unit will pay one-third of the total award received by the students.
Each scholarship is valid for a year (i.e., two consecutive or three academic sessions). The awarding graduate unit will determine the value and duration of each OGS award, which will be detailed in the offer letter.
