The ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Bursary Application is a web-based platform used by students to apply for and track bursary application outcomes, and by the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Office of Student Financial Support to manage the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Bursary Program. This program provides non-repayable financial aid to full-time ¹û½´ÊÓƵ students who demonstrate financial need beyond what is covered by OSAP or their home province’s student aid program.

For more information about the program including eligibility criteria, application procedures, and important deadlines, please refer to the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Bursary Program webpage.

The ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Course Outline Explorer is a custom-built platform designed to digitize both existing and new ¹û½´ÊÓƵ course outlines, offering a streamlined, accessible, and user-friendly experience for instructors and students.

One of the essential features of the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Course Outline Explorer is the autonomy it offers over intellectual property. Users/Faculty retain full ownership of their course outlines and are free to delete or modify them at any time, ensuring that their creative work remains under their control.

By transforming static documents into dynamic, editable formats, the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Course Outline Explorer not only simplifies course outline management but also supports long-term flexibility and innovation in curriculum design.

Faculty: Access the tool through the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Course Outline Explorer - Overview webpage.

The ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Course Planner (often referred to as ¹û½´ÊÓƵ CP) is a web-based application designed to support staff, faculty, and instructors with course planning. The website allows administrative staff to plan and schedule courses for upcoming sessions.

Access to the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Course Planner depends on a faculty member’s or instructor’s assigned roles and status within OISE and the HRIS system. If you are an existing or former instructor experiencing access issues, please contact your department’s business officer for assistance. New hires can reach out to Education Commons for access requests.

The Graduate Funding application is a web-based tool used primarily as a communication channel between the ¹û½´ÊÓƵ Office of Student Financial Support and ¹û½´ÊÓƵ upcoming and current students, applying for or receiving graduate funding packages.
