OSOTF
Ontario Student Opportunities Trust Fund (OSOTF)
The OSOTF awards refer to a group 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.
The value of OSOTF awards is based on the annual income earned by the endowment, and the amounts specified represent an estimated value. The amounts may change at the time of payment.
Several awards are available in the fields of general chemistry, organic/biological chemistry and polymers chemistry.
