Suggestions for scholarships in Canada for international students?

I'm thinking of applying to schools in Canada but need financial aid. Does anyone know what scholarships are available for international students? Specifically for undergraduate programs, if possible. I'd appreciate any advice on where to start looking.

Sure, I can provide some general ideas for starting your search. Many universities in Canada have their own scholarships which they administer directly, so I highly recommend checking the official university websites and reaching out to their financial aid offices to get the most complete information.

For example, the University of Toronto offers the Lester B. Pearson International Scholarship Program which covers tuition, books, incidental fees, and full residence support for four years. University of British Columbia's International Scholars Program provides awards ranging from $25,000 per annum to a full-ride scholarship that includes tuition, fees, and living costs.

York University offers the Global Leader of Tomorrow Award and the International Entrance Scholarship of Distinction for international students who demonstrate excellent academic achievement and leadership skills.

Other than the institutional scholarships, you can also check out non-institutional scholarships such as the Trudeau Foundation Scholarships, Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships, and Canada Memorial Scholarships.

There's also Appily, which has a scholarship search engine feature. You can input your details and it will provide a list of scholarships you may be eligible for. Please remember to verify the details of each scholarship independently, and be wary of any offers requiring a fee to access scholarship information.

Remember, obtaining scholarships is a competitive process, so ensure your applications reflect your strengths and align with your chosen area of study. Good luck with your applications!
