International Undergraduate Entrance Scholarships at the University of Guelph offer substantial financial support for international students beginning their first post-secondary degree studies in the fall semester. These scholarships are awarded based on admission averages and provide funding to help offset international tuition costs. Eligibility Criteria - Open to international students entering post-secondary studies for the first time. - Must register full-time (minimum 2.0 credits) in the first fall and winter semesters of a degree program. - Admission average is calculated by the University of Guelph’s Admission Services, including evaluation of international grading scales. - Must pay international student tuition and fees. Scholarship Value The scholarship amount depends on the admission average as follows: - 95.0% and greater: $9,500 in year 1, $4,000 annually for years 2, 3, and 4; total $21,500 over 4 years. - 90.0% - 94.9%: $8,500 in year 1, $4,000 annually for years 2, 3, and 4; total $20,500 over 4 years. - 85.0% - 89.9%: $7,500 in year 1, $4,000 annually for years 2, 3, and 4; total $19,500 over 4 years. - 80.0% - 84.9%: $6,500 in year 1, $4,000 annually for years 2, 3, and 4; total $18,500 over 4 years. - 75.0% - 79.9%: $5,500 for year 1 only; no renewal for subsequent years. Renewal Conditions - Renewal applies only for students with an admission average of 80.0% or higher. - Recipients must maintain full-time enrollment and achieve a minimum 80.0% average in the previous academic year of full-time study. - Must continue paying international tuition and fees. - Students who lose eligibility may re-qualify by achieving the required average in a subsequent year; however, lost payments cannot be recovered later. Application and Award Process - Submit a complete application for admission to the University of Guelph with all required documents. - Scholarship eligibility is assessed automatically upon admission application review. - Successful recipients are notified of their scholarship with their admission offer. - Scholarship funds are applied in two equal payments over the fall and winter semesters. Important Notes - Entrance scholarships cannot be deferred. - Students who defer their admission offer will be reconsidered for scholarships the following year based on availability for that cohort. This scholarship is an excellent opportunity for international students demonstrating academic excellence to receive significant funding toward their education at the University of Guelph. Prospective students are encouraged to apply early, ensure all admission documents are complete, and maintain strong academic performance to maximize scholarship benefits.
