Matriculation and Undergraduate Awards 

 Scholarships
A scholarship is a monetary award to assist full-time students in
the pursuit of their studies based on outstanding academic
achievement, but usually not on financial need.

    The fact that a student has the required average or
higher does not guarantee a scholarship. Scholarships are
competitive based on grades.

    The University may allot scholarships by Faculty.

    Scholarships offered by the University are tenable
only at Wilfrid Laurier University.

 Matriculation Scholarships
Matriculation scholarships are available to Canadian citizens,
permanent residents, and applicants who hold a valid student
visa. To be eligible, visa applicants must have completed their
senior year at a Canadian high school.

    These scholarships are sponsored and administered by
the University for students who are entering the First Year of
any undergraduate program. The scholarships are based on interim
grades submitted by secondary schools. The required averages
quoted below are the minimum averages. Competition may require
higher averages in some programs. A student who accepts an offer
of admission at Wilfrid Laurier University may defer registration
for one year without loss of the scholarship, provided the
student does not register in the interval at another post
secondary institution.

    A student may not hold more than one matriculation
scholarship.

    Successful candidates will be selected on the basis
of academic achievement. Previous academic progress and the
secondary school principal's comments will also be taken into
consideration.

    If a scholarship recipient applies for financial
assistance through the Ontario Student Assistant Program, the
amount of aid will be affected in accordance with the regulations
of the program.
