Graduate Excellence Scholarship
In response to our commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion, the College of Social and Applied Human Sciences (CSAHS) has established the Graduate Excellence Scholarship. These entrance scholarships will enhance accessibility for students and mark an important step toward achieving a more diverse and inclusive graduate student community.
Scholarships will be reserved for Canadian or permanent residents that self-identify as Black and/or Indigenous (First Nations, Inuit, and/or Métis) and/or racialized.
Awards
Recipients will receive a one-time award. Award amounts may vary.
Eligibility

Applicants must demonstrate outstanding academic performance and/or potential and leadership potential, either through past achievements, or through proposed research program and career aspirations. Applicants must include a statement of declaration.
Application Process
