Awards, bursaries and scholarships

We offer a variety of supports to help you finance your education and time at university:

  • Awards: Based on a combination of various criteria and donor contribution amounts (domestic students).

  • Bursaries: Based on financial need (domestic and international students).

  • Scholarships: Based on academic performance (domestic and international students).

Best of all, this is financial assistance that you don't have to pay back! The applications can all be found on MyOntarioTech on the Student Awards and Financial Aid tab, within the Current Students section. 

Students with disabilities

If you're a student with a documented disability that impacts your ability to take a full course load, our Admissions and Scholarship Committee will review your application, pending you meet all other criteria for the bursary. Student Accessibility Services (SAS) can assist with your eligibility.
