We are excited to welcome first-year students who received a housing guarantee. Students with the housing guarantee will be sent offers on a rolling basis. Residence fees are the sum of the meal plan fee, room fee, and residence council fee. In order for us to guarantee your spot in residence, you must pay your deposits and residence fees.

Offer of Acceptance
$1,000 deposit is due at the time you accept your Vic Residence Offer. This deposit must be paid through the online application (StarRez), and cannot be paid through ACORN/ROSI.

A second deposit of $1,000 will be due on the week of July 18, 2022. This total $2,000 (first deposit and second deposit) is non-refundable and will confirm your intention of living in residence. You will also receive your building assignment at this time. Failure to pay the second deposit by the due date will result in the cancellation of your room reservation, and your space will be offered to the next person on our waitlist.

All deposits must be paid through the online application (StarRez), and cannot be paid through ACORN/ROSI.

Fees Information

Residence and meal plan fees for both Fall and Winter will be charged to your ACORN account by mid-August, 2022. Note that your payments may take up to 5 days to appear on ACORN.

If you obtained a tuition deferral (and registered without payment) or paid the minimum required payment amount displayed on your ACORN invoice or fees have changed since the registration period, you must pay outstanding fees by the Fall term, Winter term, or Summer session deadlines. Otherwise, monthly service charge fees will be billed on your ACORN invoice on the 15th of every month at a monthly rate of 1.5% compounded (19.56% per annum) until paid in full. View Other Restrictions on Past Due Accounts.

More information on student fees is available on the Students Accounts Website.

Every student is responsible for monitoring their own ACORN account balance; regular reminders are sent through UTOR email.

Residence applications will open to all current first-year students on March 15 and close on March 31, 2022. No deposit is required to submit your initial application. We have limited spaces for upper-year students and offers will be allocated via a lottery system on May 15, 2022, with a deadline of one week to complete the balance of the application, sign the residence agreement, and pay the initial first deposit of $1,000.

Offers of residence will be contingent upon:

1. Confirmation of a minimum 2.0 AGPA for the 2021-2022 academic period

2. Confirmation of zero balance on applicant’s ACORN account by April 2022

Students who are unsuccessful in the first round lottery will automatically be entered into a smaller second round lottery on July 20, 2022. All students will be added to our waitlist and will be contacted as additional spaces become available after July 20, 2022.

For those who are selected, we do our best to accommodate building and floor choices where possible. Currently, we will only be offering single rooms for upper-year students (this could change at a future date).

Presently, students will not be permitted to sit and dine in the Burwash Dining Hall. The Meal Plan is still mandatory and will operate as a take-out/grab-and-go style with a declining balance. The dining hall will still work to accommodate allergies and dietary preferences. 

All students who decide to live in residence are required to purchase a meal plan. Visit the Student Meal Plans & Dining Hall Menus webpage to learn more.

If you are a student who requires accommodation related to accessibility, it is important that you register with Accessibility Services as soon as possible.

Students who want to cancel or withdraw from residence must do so by emailing vic.dean@utoronto.ca. Please include your full name, student number, and reason for cancelling. Withdrawals will not be accepted in person or over the phone.

RESIDENCE WITHDRAWAL POLICY

Students considering living in residence should make themselves aware of the following University Residence Withdrawal Policy. Applications are accepted and accommodation assigned on the understanding that the Student is making a financial commitment for the full academic/residence session. THERE ARE SERIOUS FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES ENTAILED IN WITHDRAWING FROM RESIDENCE BEFORE THE END OF THE 2022-2023 FALL-WINTER ACADEMIC PERIOD. Students will need to obtain approval from the Dean of Students for any special considerations or exemptions from this policy. Since residence and meal plan fees are set for the entire 2022-2023 Fall-Winter Academic Term (which commences on September 4, 2022, and ends on April 30, 2023), and not on a week-to-week or month-to-month basis, students are accepted to residence on the understanding that they will remain in residence for the full academic session. By signing this Agreement, the Student acknowledges and confirms that they are entering into a contract to occupy the premises for a set term in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and that the operation of the residence and dining hall depends on a stable resident census.

RESIDENCE WITHDRAWAL FEES

Students who leave residence during the term of this Agreement will be held financially responsible as follows:

1. Students who withdraw before the week of July 18, 2022 will forfeit their initial $1,000 residence deposit.
   
   
2. Students who withdraw between July 25 and September 7, 2022 will forfeit their first and second deposits ($2,000).
   
   
3. Students who withdraw between September 8, 2022 and November 30, 2022 will forfeit first and second deposit ($2,000) plus a $500 early withdrawal fee and room and board fees, prorated to their date of departure.
   
   
4. Students who withdraw after November 30, 2022, will be responsible for all applicable fees and charges in their entirety.

First-year move-in September 4, 2022. Early arrival is possible based on availability.

Upper-year move-in September 5, 2022. Early arrival is possible based on availability.

Students will be allowed two helpers to support their move-in.

Detailed instructions regarding move-in will be sent via email in August.

Due to their architecture and age, our residences can be challenging living environments for students with accessibility needs. In 1993 Rowell Jackman Hall was built in accordance with the accessibility standards of the time, but even it no longer meets some current accessibility requirements.

Our suite-style residence offers single-sex and co-ed housing options. Each suite houses three to seven students in single and double rooms. The suites have common rooms, one or two washrooms, shared kitchen facilities and a living room. This residence is home to primarily upper-year students, although some first-year students are also housed in double rooms.

Some suites are designed to accommodate residents with accessibility needs, and the building is wheelchair-accessible from the parkade level.
