Hello There ,
The University of Ottawa today announces a new four-year renewable entrance and excellence scholarship worth up to $100,000 for African students newly admitted to English undergraduate programs in the Telfer School of Management, engineering, science, health sciences, or social sciences.
To be eligible for these scholarships, international students must meet the following criteria:
- Be a citizen of any country in Africa.
- Be newly admitted in the fall 2025 term in one of the eligible undergraduate programs offered in English
- Not enrol in the French immersion stream
- Have a valid study permit when classes start
- Be enrolled full-time.
Depending on their average, eligible students could receive an excellence scholarship worth at least $100,000 or an entrance scholarship worth at least $60,000 over four years.
Totaling more than $117 million, our undergraduate international scholarship and financial aid program remains among the most generous at any major Canadian university.
It rewards not only your pre-university academic achievements but also your achievements every term of full-time study.
The scholarship will give African students studying in English access to many programs across three faculties by significantly reducing their tuition.
To help students throughout the application process, the University of Ottawa will host several virtual information sessions to answer questions and advise prospective students.
