Overview
University of Toronto Engineering Science (BASc, St. George) uses a broad-based admissions process centered on strong grades plus the mandatory Online Student Profile. There is no separate portfolio requirement; test scores matter when applicable to the applicant's curriculum and are fully disclosed if submitted.

Admission criteria

PortfolioLow

No separate portfolio, work-sample, or project submission is used for admission; the program instead reviews the Online Student Profile and academics.
