General Eligibility Requirements
Candidates must meet the following base academic criteria for entrance scholarships and awards:
Present an admission average that meets or exceeds those required for the specific scholarship or award.
Be entering university directly from high school with fewer than 12 credits of university course work taken during high school or following time taken off between high school and university, provided that no post-secondary credit was received during that time.
Be entering the first year of full-time studies in an undergraduate degree program at the University of Alberta in September of the upcoming year.
Additional scholarship criteria may apply. Candidate eligibility for specific scholarships will be assessed based on their admission information and their scholarship application. Our scholarship and award competitions are competitive; there is no guarantee that meeting eligibility will result in a scholarship or award offer.
Entrance award offers are conditional on the accuracy of your self-recorded grades. If there is a discrepancy between your self-recorded grades and your final official transcript, your award offer could be revoked.
