A university-funded tuition award for newly admitted international students entering a full-time, course-based master's program at the University of Guelph, intended to offset the higher international tuition rate.
About this scholarship
The scholarship was established to facilitate recruitment of outstanding international master's students. Students are identified by their departments, and the award is included directly in their offer of admission. The award is guaranteed if all eligibility requirements are met. It was introduced as part of the University's international master's tuition scholarships (IMTS) initiative, aimed at welcoming more international students, diversifying the campus, and encouraging international student retention.
What the award includes
Various awards valued at $6,000 CAD, payable over 3 semesters (note: some third-party aggregator listings show $1,500, which appears to reflect a per-semester installment rather than the total award)
