Scholarships

We offer entry scholarships of $6,500 CAD. Please note the following criteria:

  • If the student has completed more than 30 credits at the post-secondary level, they will not be eligible for entry scholarships.
  • If the student has completed fewer than 30 post-secondary credits, they do not need to apply for entry scholarships, as any student who applies to study with us is automatically evaluated for eligibility.
  • Although consideration is automatic, receipt of entry scholarships is highly competitive (typically, we would expect a minimum of 90% across all of a student's admission subjects though this does not guarantee scholarship status).
  • Preference is given to students whose applications are submitted by March 1 for the Fall semester
  • Scholarship funding for the Winter and Spring intakes is extremely limited, so entry scholarships usually only go to those who apply for the Fall semester (though some scholarships may be granted in Winter if funding is available).
  • Entry scholarships apply to the student's first year only and are non-renewable
