Kothari Family FIRST Alumni Entrance Scholarship

Two scholarships, valued at CAN $12,500 each, will be provided annually to full-time undergraduate students enrolled in Year One of any program in the Faculty of Engineering (excluding the School of Architecture). At least one of the two scholarships will be provided to a student who identifies as a woman enrolled in an Engineering program in which women are underrepresented. Selection is based on academic excellence (minimum 90% admission average) combined with extracurricular and leadership involvement as assessed through the Admission Information Form (AIF), online video interview and active participation on a FIRST (For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology) robotics team in the final year of high school. Students should emphasize their FIRST participation in the AIF. This fund is made possible by a donation from the Kothari Family who strongly believes in the value of post-secondary education and extracurricular activities such as FIRST.
