Elective Awards

Awards listed in this section are open to fourth-year students and require an application. Information and instructions regarding the completion and submission of this online application will be e-mailed to all fourth-year MD Program students in September.

For those awards with financial need as a criterion, unmet need, as assessed by the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) or the University of Toronto Advanced Planning for Students (UTAPS), will be used to determine level of need.
