Recipients will be selected by the Co-ordinator, Financial Aid and Awards in GSPA based on applications for financial need based awards. Where applicants fit the eligibility criteria, but there are no sufficient funds available, a University of Waterloo Graduate Studies Fund Scholarship may be awarded instead.
Award description:
A University of Waterloo Graduate Studies Fund has been established in Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs (GSPA) to (i) administer contributions received under the Senate Graduate Scholarships program and designated to graduate studies, (ii) to serve as a general account for funds donated for graduate studies without specific administrative requirements and (iii) to create a graduate scholarship fund to honour the memory of people associated with the university, i.e., alumni, faculty, friends, retirees, and staff. (Existence of this fund does not preclude the creation of other memorial funds named for individuals.)
Awards will initially be made, as funds permit, under the terms of the Senate Graduate Scholarships: students must have a B+ standing and normally be registered full time.
Selection process:
Student selected automatically by Faculty/Department
