advantages of a faculty of both arts and science is that students have the opportunity to combine programs in widely different subject areas. For example, you can study English and statistics, physics and philosophy, chemistry and geology, or anthropology and criminology. Recognizing the importance of cross-discipline collaboration, the Faculty offers a number of unique interdisciplinary programs. Programs like international relations, cognitive science and artificial intelligence, and urban studies give students the added benefit of taking courses from a variety of departments. The Faculty offers three degrees: honours bachelor of arts, honours bachelor of science, and honours bachelor of commerce.All three degrees require 20 credits (usually four years), and can be a mix of specialist (nine or more credits),

Arts Humanities Students in the humanities study all aspects of human culture, including language, literature, history, philosophy, fine art, architecture, cinema, classics, culture, religion, drama and music. From ancient Egypt to post-colonial literature, from languages to the civilizations of Asia, a wide variety of courses and programs in the humanities provide students with the knowledge, intellectual skills and habits of thought indispensable to a modern education. Social Sciences How do revolutions start? What is the relationship between the environment and the economy? How does language contribute to ethnic identity? These

Concurrent Teacher Education Program
Commerce Offered jointly by the Faculty of Arts and Science and the Rotman School of Management, the Rotman Commerce Program offers an innovative and integrative curriculum with a global perspective for an enriched professional undergraduate experience.The four-year Bachelor of Commerce allows students to specialize in one of three areas: finance and economics, management, or accounting. Each stream combines career-oriented courses in management and applied economics with a wide selection of courses in the arts and sciences.The balance assures graduates
The Faculty has two programs that will give you the opportunity to become a qualified teacher and earn your undergraduate degree over a five year period. The programs are offered in collaboration with Uof T’s Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE). Christianity and Culture: Religious Education prepares students for teaching at the intermediate and senior levels in Catholic school boards. Education and Society focuses on primary and junior level teaching in inner-city schools. Students enroll in these programs at the end of their first year.

of a solid understanding of business and modern society along with critical and analytical skills for effective decisionmaking and organizational leadership.
WHAT CAN I DO WITH AN ARTS AND SCIENCE DEGREE? About half of the work opportunities available to university graduates don’t require a specific degree. Employers most value interpersonal abilities and transferable skills, such as expertise in conducting research and making presentations, adaptability and decision making – all qualities of Arts and Science graduates! The diverse range of abilities held by Arts and Science graduates provide insurance against the fluctuations of a rapidly changing economy. Transferable skills get stronger the more they are used, where more specialized skills can quickly become outdated. Arts and Science graduates have the ability to think critically and learn outside of their subject area. This adaptability prepares them for employment in a large variety of fields, such as government, education, research, media, public relations, publishing, not-for-profit, management, finance, advertising and sales. An Arts and Science degree prepares graduates for professional or graduate degrees in fields like law, teaching, medicine or specialized research.

of living matter.The study of life sciences helps students to understand and analyse the behaviour of the human body and those of other organisms. It prepares students for ethical, social and political questions arising from our increasing ability to modify living systems and enhance society’s ability to protect the delicate and complex ecological balance that sustains the world. Life sciences include biology, botany, psychology, zoology and human sciences.
First Year in Arts and Science Students in the Faculty of Arts and Science enroll in a program of study at the end of first year.This means that in the first year of study students take courses that are required for the program(s) they are interested in pursuing. Students interested in science programs will usually need to include prerequisite subjects such as biology, chemistry, physics and calculus. Students who don’t know what their intended program of study will be have lots of time to figure it out – usually by taking a mix of courses in first year that are preparation for a variety of programs.
To help with the transition to university life,the Faculty of Arts and Science has created several unique first-year programs. First-Year Seminars Discussion, issues, questions and controversies lie at the heart of the first-year seminars program.Taught by the Faculty’s leading scholars, first-year seminars are offered in every discipline. To ensure a high level of participation, enrolment in each seminar is capped at 24 students. Course topics range from Language and the Internet to Environmental Change: Producing New Natures to Pacifists and Peaceniks: Canadian Peace Movements in Transnational Context. Trinity One and Vic One Two colleges in the Faculty of Arts and Science offer distinctive first-year programs to help with the transition to university.The Trinity One and Vic One programs provide a structured transition from high school to university with a focus on developing critical thinking, speaking and writing skills and an atmosphere that allows students to develop close relationships with fellow classmates and instructors.

CHOOSING A COLLEGE College choice is highly subjective. It’s a matter of finding the right fit for you. Each college has its own character. Different qualities such as location, architecture, residences, size, traditions, family or religious affiliation will appeal to different students. Residences vary from one college to the next. Some are traditional dormitory-style and include meals, while others are apartment-style with no meal plan. When you apply to the Faculty of Arts and Science on the OUAC application you must rank all seven colleges in order of preference. To assist you there will be links on the OUAC web site to information about each of the colleges, including their own web sites for prospective students.

University of Toronto Advance Planning for Students (UTAPS) Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents and Protected Persons For Canadian students, the University
the assumption that students will first access the government aid for which they are eligible.We assess financial aid on the same basis as the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP). For a student who qualifies for the maximum OSAP funding, and who has further assessed need not covered by OSAP, the University will provide the additional assistance in the form of a non-repayable grant for undergraduate students. The grant is delivered through a Uof T program called UTAPS, University of Toronto Advance Planning for Students. Students who are concerned about the financial cost of attending university can obtain an assessment

of the amount of funding they can expect to receive by completing and submitting a UTAPS application using our Web-based assessment program at www.adm.utoronto.ca.
Government Financial Aid OSAP provides a combination of Canada and Ontario Student Loans and Access Grants for full-time students. Although the loans must be repaid after graduation, they are interest-free and non-repayable as long as the student is enrolled in full-time university study. It is a basic assumption of the OSAP program that parents will assist their children during their first four years of university study if they are financially able to do so. Because OSAP assessments are based on many factors, it can be misleading to provide estimates of the level of assistance which might be expected.We know, however, that planning is difficult when students and parents have no idea of how much aid might be available.The following cases are intended to give a general sense of how the OSAP program operates: Four person family with two children, one of whom attends university full-time in Arts and Science, from
Technology programs can expect increased tuition fees in their second year of study. In 2009-10 students entering second year of commerce or business administration

For qualifying students, OSAP covers tuition and other fees, books and equipment, and provides a living allowance which is modest. Many students find that they need to supplement their OSAP award through part-time work or other means. The Admissions and Awards website, www.adm.utoronto.ca, provides comprehensive information about costs, sources of assistance, budgetplanning and financial management for students in all programs. International Students International students in need of financial assistance should consult funding agencies in their home country. U.S. citizens are eligible for loan assistance through the Federal Stafford Loan Program. Please visit or website at www.adm.utoronto.ca for detailed application instructions.

Scholarships The National Book Award and Scholarship Program The University of Toronto National Book Award Program is intended to recognize and reward the very best Canadian secondary school students, regardless of which university those students choose to attend. These are students who demonstrate superior academic performance, original and creative thought, and exceptional achievement in a broad context. Canadian schools are invited to nominate one student to receive the National Book Award.
