University of Guelph Dean's International Scholarship

About this scholarship

The University of Guelph Dean's International Scholarship is a renewable international undergraduate entrance scholarship. Guelph lists it among top scholarships for international students and describes it as a competitive award for new students entering their first semester in the fall. Students must have a complete admission file by the final document deadline to be considered, and the official page states that no separate scholarship application is required. Eligible students are notified through their offer of admission. The Fall 2026 value is CAD $2,500 in year one, with CAD $2,500 annual renewal amounts for years two, three, and four if renewal criteria are met, for an overall possible value of CAD $10,000. The award is partial funding because it does not fully pay international tuition, compulsory fees, housing, meals, books, health insurance, travel, or personal costs. Renewal criteria require recipients to remain registered in full-time studies, achieve at least an 80.0% average in the previous full-time academic year, and continue paying international student tuition and fees.
