The Varsity is the official student newspaper of the University of Toronto, located in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada. In publication since 1880 and originally a broadsheet daily, it is now printed in compact form. The paper primarily focuses on tri-campus affairs and local news.

The paper publishes weekly on all three University of Toronto campuses (Mississauga, St. George, and Scarborough) during the fall and winter semesters and online throughout the year, along with two seasonal magazines. The paper is published by Varsity Publications Inc., a not-for-profit corporation based on the St. George campus, and is financed by student levies and advertisement revenue.
