Admission Requirements

The STEM@RUNN program is identified as a Secondary Central Student Interest program as defined by the TDSB.

 Students apply to Centralized Programs through an online application that will be available in November. Learn more about Applications and Admissions. 

All students who have an interest and passion for a particular area may apply to the centralized schools and programs.


Students are encouraged to attend Open House events and research the programs before submitting their application.


The online application will be open from November 6 to 24, 2023 at 4 p.m. Where the number of applicants exceed the number of spaces available in a program, all eligible applicants will be included in the random selection process.


Each type of program (i.e. STEM) will have a consistent application outlined on the programs’ webpage. Math, Science and Technology focused programs have no supplemental applications that are required.


Students can apply to up to two Centralized Programs or Schools. If applying to two choices, the applications must be ranked. If accepted to the first choice program, they will not be considered for their second choice.


Students may also opt to be considered in other programs/schools of the same focus that have availability if they are not selected for their desired school. 

In addition to prioritizing students from underserved communities, the TDSB Math, Science and Technology programs are committed to supporting the representation of students self-identifying as female.
