Fall/Winter Housing Guarantee
Residence is guaranteed for all full-time students entering their first year of university in an undergraduate program for the first time, provided they have indicated their interest in residence on their OUAC application, and have received an offer of admission by May 31, 2011.
First-year students who do not qualify for the housing guarantee should contact Student Housing to inquire about alternate housing and the central residence waiting list.
Email Correspondence
The Office of Residence and Student Life (ORSL) corresponds with students via email (to the address indicated on the student’s OUAC application). Please follow these guidelines to ensure that admission correspondence is received:
- Check email regularly.
- Ensure that folders where messages may be diverted to are checked (i.e. junk or trash).
- Set email filters to accept all messages from ‘utoronto.ca’ accounts.
- Notify the ORSL immediately if you will not have email access for any period.
- If your email address should change, please update it on your OUAC application (pre-admission) or http://join.utoronto.ca/ (post-admission) immediately.
All correspondence will be sent to the email address indicated on your OUAC application. Ensure that emails from new.residence@utoronto.ca are replied to promptly as offers have a strict deadline.
