Scholarships
In-Course Scholarships
Students registered in the Faculty of Applied Science and
Engineering are considered for scholarships after each academic year.
Some scholarships are based upon
academic achievement; however, some awards have additional criteria
(e.g. extra-curricular activities
,
financial need etc).
Please ensure
that your
On-line Engineering Portfolio is complete and up-to-date. The Scholarships
Committee will use the information in the Portfolio to assist them in
selecting recipients for these awards.
Ontario Student Opportunity Trust Fund (OSOTF) Awards
In the case of all OSOTF awards, eligible
candidates must be Canadian
citizens
or Permanent residents and must demonstrate financial need. In
addition, you must have lived in Ontario for twelve consecutive months
prior to starting a post-secondary program.
Financial need is
most easily demonstrated with receipt of OSAP for the current
year. Other examples of financial need will be considered (for example,
the financial portion of the
On-line
Engineering Portfolio. For admission OSOTF Awards, it is crucial
that an admission applicant complete a
UTAPS
application in order to demonstrate
financial need.
International or
out-of-province students are not eligible for OSOTF awards.
External Scholarships, Awards, and Grants
Additional
funding may be available from outside organizations, but it is often
difficult to find this information. Human Resources Canada hosts a
website that provides students with valuable information about financing
a University education. This website also allows students to add their
names to a database that notifies students of awards they may be
eligible for.
Please visit
www.canlearn.ca for more
information.
Students should also check the scholarships
bulletin board located in the Galbraith Building, outside room 153 for
information about external scholarships for which they may be eligible. Additionally, the Faculty will use the
information in the On-line Engineering Portfolio to assist them to
identify potential candidates for external awards; as such, it is
important that your Portfolio is complete and maintained.
