Eligible scholarship recipients are sent a preliminary scholarship offer notification letter.

How do I renew my scholarship?

To renew scholarships in subsequent years, students must:

Be registered in a minimum 80% of a full-course load (12 credits) in each subsequent semester.
Maintain a minimum overall GPA of 3.2 for all scholarships valued below $3,750 or a minimum GPA of 3.5 for scholarships valued $3,750 or greater during the fall and winter semesters for the September intake, or the winter and subsequent fall semester for the January intake.
