University of Saskatchewan International Excellence Award
Offered by University of Saskatchewan
About this scholarship
The University of Saskatchewan International Excellence Award is a targeted entrance award for a top new international undergraduate student. USask lists it under International student awards, which are awarded based on academic achievement, and states that international students are considered automatically for the award upon admission. The value is CAD $10,000, and the official page lists one award. The key deadline is the undergraduate admission deadline for scholarship consideration: students must apply for admission by February 15 to be eligible for automatic consideration. Unlike USask's Best and Brightest scholarships or competitive entrance awards, this international award does not require a separate awards application through PAWS; the admission application and academic record drive consideration. The award is partial funding because it is a one-time entrance amount and does not cover full tuition, housing, meals, health insurance, travel, books, or personal expenses. It is best suited to international students with exceptional secondary-school academic achievement who are entering a direct-entry undergraduate program. Scholarship offers are communicated by email, and successful students must follow USask instructions to accept awards and enroll in the required academic terms.
