The $3000 CAD Prize can only be used by an admitted student for a Fall 2023 or Winter 2024 Post-Graduate or Post-Secondary program as of April 30, 2023, and cannot be applied to any applicable deposits. The $1500 CAD Prize(s) can only be used by an admitted student for an upcoming level of the English for Academic Purposes (EAP) program as of April 30, 2023, and cannot be applied to any applicable deposits.

In the event the winner of the $3000 CAD prize is not a student enrolled in a Fall 2023 or Winter 2024 program at MITT as of April 30, 2023, due to their selected course(s) being full, the winner may – at the sole discretion of MITT – defer the Prize and apply it towards an upcoming intake, subject to the conditions herein.

MITT reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to substitute the Prize or a component of the Prize for a prize or a component of a prize of equal or greater value. If a student has already paid his or her tuition for Fall 2023 or Winter 2024, MITT will reimburse that student for the value of his or her tuition credit, less any deposits and fees.
