Past Exams Collections

Notice: The 'Old Exams Repository' website is now the Past Exams Collections on TSpace.

New batches of exams provided by campus registrars will be added to the new Past Exams Collections on TSpace only.

 

Past Exams Collections are maintained by the University of Toronto Libraries as a service to current students. 

Previously known as the 'Old Exams Repository' and hosted on a separate system, the Past Exams Collections are now dedicated collections within TSpace as of Spring 2025.

These collections host a rolling set of the 3 years of exams from select departments and campuses. All exams the library receives are posted, unless they have been restricted by faculty's request.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

 

Are answers to past exams available in the Repository?

No. The Past Exams Collections only make exam questions available, not the answers.

 

Are term tests available in the Repository?

No. The Past Exams Collections only make final exams available, not term tests.

 

I cannot find an exam in the Past Exams Collections. Can you post it by request?

The Past Exams Collections has a rolling set of the 3 most recent years of exams from select departments and campusesWe post all exams that we receive and have no additional materials to upload.

Why is an exam not available in the collections? It could be because:

  • The course was not offered in a given session
  • The exam for this course was restricted by instructor's request
  • The exam was not submitted by the course instructor 
  • The campus or department is no longer supplying exams to the collections

 

I can't see any recent exams. When will they be posted?

There was a pause of adding exams since the COVID-19 pandemic due to cancellations or changes in exam administration practices. UTM and St. George Faculty of Arts and Science exam deliveries have resumed post-pandemic, along with the regular removals of exams older than the 3-year threshold.

All exams the library has received are posted.
