Academic Awards and Scholarships

Scholarships

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

1. Students must be registered in five full-credits for the Fall and Winter terms. Students in their final year of studies are permitted to carry a reduced course load of no less than 80 percent (four full-credits) over the Fall and Winter terms.
2. Calculation of the scholarship will be based on the previous years' GPA from the Fall and Winter terms. (Note: students must have attained five full-credits in the previous Fall and Winter terms.) Co-op students may satisfy this requirement in any two of the previous Fall, Winter and Spring terms.
3. International exchange students may be eligible to receive a scholarship.

To receive an award or scholarship, a student must carry a full and approved course load.

In an academic year, a student may be awarded up to two School of Business and Economics academic awards, only one of which may be $500.00 or more.

Applications for Business and Economics Scholarships and Awards are available with the SBE Office in the Peters Building or the Student Awards Office.
