Awards

A wide range of awards and bursaries are available to undergraduate students based on academic achievement, leadership potential, community involvement, specific areas of interest or skill, as well as financial need. A complete listing of awards available to undergraduate students administered by the University of Lethbridge can be found at uleth.academicworks.ca.

a.Entrance Awards

Entrance awards include Board of Governors’ Admission scholarship, leadership scholarships, awards for high school applicants, and transfer scholarships. These awards are for students entering an undergraduate program at the University for the first time and, except for the transfer scholarships, for those without previous participation in a post-secondary program.

High school students participating in dual credit programs may be eligible for high school entrance awards. High school grades will be used to determine award eligibility.

Students who are participating in dual admission may be eligible for transfer awards. Transfer grades will be used to determine award eligibility.

While not all awards require the applicant to apply, application is strongly recommended for students who feel that they may qualify for scholarships. Award applicants must submit a complete Application for Admission to Student Enrolment and Registrar Services by the appropriate application deadline, and ensure that Student Enrolment and Registrar Services receives all admission documents by the appropriate official document deadline. Students need not have been accepted for admission to the University prior to applying for entrance awards, but students must have applied for admission prior to applying for awards.

b.Continuing Undergraduate Awards

Continuing Undergraduate awards include general awards and scholarships, Faculty-, School-, or program-specific awards, and Athletic awards. These awards are for students continuing in full-time studies in their undergraduate degree program at the University.
