GRADUATE ONTARIO STUDENT OPPORTUNITY TRUST FUNDS (OSOTF) AWARD

FINANCIAL NEEDS ASSESSMENT FORM

INTRODUCTION:

The "OSOTF awards" refer to a class of awards, which have resulted from Ontario government's

"matching" program. Under the program every dollar of donation received for student assistance has been

matched by the government as well as the university on a dollar-for-dollar basis. There are two major

conditions for all OSOTF awards. Recipients must be Ontario residents and demonstrate financial need.

ELIGIBILITY:

OSOTF awards are restricted to the residents of Ontario who demonstrate financial need, according to the

provincial government's guidelines on OSOTF program.

For the purpose of OSOTF awards, an Ontario resident is either a Canadian citizen or a permanent

resident of Canada who has an Ontario mailing address at the time the award is made.

Financial need can be demonstrated by applying for OSAP or by completing the attached needs

assessment form.

If you have already been assessed for the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) or the University

of Toronto Advance Planning for Students (UTAPS), complete sections 1, 2 and 3 only. If you have

applied for OSAP, but did not receive the result of assessment, complete this form. If you have not

applied for OSAP, complete the form also.

In addition to the financial and residence requirements, there may be other selection criteria for the

OSOTF awards.
