We know that university is a big investment, so the University of Guelph-Humber offers some of the province’s most generous scholarships available to incoming students. Discover the top three here:
Renewable Entrance Scholarship
If you have a 75% admission average or more, you’re eligible for this $2000-$5000 entrance scholarship. The scholarship can be renewed at a scaled value for up to 3 years, and the best part is, you’re automatically considered for this scholarship —no application required.
Founder’s Academic Merit Scholarship
Each year, 10 outstanding students are awarded this prestigious scholarship, which recognizes academic achievement, leadership and extracurricular involvement. The Founder’s Academic Merit Scholarship awards $5,000 per academic year over 4 years of full-time study. To be eligible, students need to have an incoming admission average of 90% and must be entering post-secondary studies for the first time. If you receive the Founder’s Academic Merit Scholarship, you’re still eligible to receive the Renewable Entrance Scholarship.
To be considered for this award, you must submit an application by February 28, 2016.

We recognize students who have completed a SHSM in a number of fields and are happy to award them a one-time scholarship of $500. No application is required.
