I'm considering undergrad studies in Canada and wondering about international scholarships available. Does anyone know about scholarships that could help cover costs for international students in Canadian universities?
Absolutely! There are several scholarship opportunities for international students at Canadian universities. The scholarships can differ from one institution to another and also by the level of study. Here are a few examples:
1. The University of Toronto offer multiple scholarships for international students including the Lester B. Pearson International Scholarship Program which covers tuition, books, incidental fees, and full residence support for four years.
2. McGill University in Montreal offers the B.B. and Margaret de Lorimier Scholarships for International Students, which provides financial aid based on merit.
3. The University of British Columbia has an 'International Major Entrance Scholarship' for newly admitted international students.
4. York University offers the 'International Entrance Scholarship of Distinction' for international students who demonstrate superior academic performance.
These scholarships often require a separate application, and eligibility might depend on a variety of factors, such as academic achievement, leadership skills, and community involvement. It's recommended to check with each university's financial aid office for more detailed information and to verify application procedures and deadlines. Good luck with your scholarship search and potential studies in Canada!
