Toronto’s Harris Institute to Close After Nearly 40 Years: ‘We’ve Had a Good Run’

The long-running music school's decision is reportedly a result of the provincial government's changes to post-secondary education, including visa restrictions for international students and the elimination of grants for private college students.

In December, Toronto’s Harris Institute close its doors. The Canadian music education institution, located at 118 Sherbourne Street, will cease operations after 37 years.

According to the organization, the decision follows major changes to the Ontario government’s post-secondary education plans, including the restriction of student visas for private colleges, the Ontario Student Assistance Program’s (OSAP) freeze on student loan payments and the elimination of grants for private college students.
