Scholarships for International Students
Scholarships reward you for all the hard work you've done to prepare for university, and is a great way to help fund your studies in Canada. At Laurier, we have two scholarships awarded specifically to our international students.
Renewable Entrance Scholarships
All applicants are automatically assessed for a renewable entrance scholarship. This scholarship is awarded based on your final high school admission average and no application is required.
The entrance scholarship is valued at $5,000 to $6,000 CAD and is renewable at these same amounts in your upper years as an in-course scholarship. See how this renewable scholarship can add up over your years at Laurier:
| Admission Average | Year 1 Entrance Amount | Year 2 to 4 In-Course Amount | Total |
| 95-100% and maintain a GPA of 10.5 | *$6,000 | $6,000 (x3) | $24,000 CAD |
| <95% and maintain a GPA of 7.0 | $5,000 | $5,000 (x3) | $20,000 CAD |
*This scholarship is the President’s Gold Scholarship. Students who receive the President’s Gold Scholarship in their first year but do not meet the requirements to renew the scholarship in their upper years will be eligible for the $5,000 CAD in-course scholarship.
Inspiring Lives Scholarship
Inspiring Lives Scholarships range in value from $1,000 to $5,000 CAD and are awarded each year to incoming international undergraduate students who inspire lives of leadership and purpose in their communities and through extracurricular activities. This scholarship is not based on your admission average and requires a separate application.
Bursary Programs
Bursary supports are available for first-year students, transfer students and upper-year students based on financial need. A separate application is required and there are opportunities to apply throughout the academic year.
