President’s Scholarships at University of Waterloo, Canada

To recognize your outstanding academic achievement, you’ll be awarded one of the following scholarships if

  • you’re admitted to a full-time, first-year degree program and
  • you’re beginning university or college for the first time in September, and
  • your early May admission average is 85% or more.

Eligibility and conditions

  • Your admission average will be calculated based on grades available in early May using your top 6 Grade 12 courses or equivalents, including each of the required courses for the program(s) to which youโ€™ve applied.
  • If you receive an Offer of Admission to more than one program, your admission average may qualify you for a President’s or Merit Scholarship in one program but not another because your admission average must include required courses, which vary from program to program.
  • If your early May admission average is below 85% but your final admission average is 85% or higher, you will be awarded the appropriate Presidentโ€™s or Merit Scholarship. You’ll be notified after we’ve received final grades in July.

To receive the full value of the scholarship, you must remain enrolled in full-time degree studies at Waterloo for the full 4-month fall term.
