Applying to Basic Degree Programs

Applications for admission to TST's conjoint* basic degree programs are managed by each TST member college separately, as each college sets its own admissions criteria and program curriculum.

Contact the admissions staff of the member college you are interested in attending for more detailed information. See Choosing a College for more information about deciding on a college of application.

*Degrees are conferred conjointly by a TST member college and the University of Toronto.
