Entering Student

We invite you to explore the wide variety of Entrance Awards the University of Windsor offers students coming directly from full-time high school studies in Canada (including students who are entering from CEGEP studies in Quebec, and Canadian Citizens/Permanent Resident students currently completing high school through an International Baccalaureate program or abroad). Some awards recognize academic excellence, some assist students with financial need, some celebrate students who demonstrate good citizenship and others reflect a combination of one or more of these attributes.

AUTOMATIC ENTRANCE AWARDS

Granted to a student entering university directly from high school. No matter which program you choose, you will automatically be considered for University of Windsor entrance scholarships. For students applying for admission through the Ontario University Application Centre (OUAC), we will review your grades in May (final and interim) to determine your eligibility for scholarships on the basis of your best six U or M level grades (or equivalent) and will forward a letter to you at that time. Final grades attained after this point will not change the offer of scholarship.

Renewable entrance awards may be granted for a maximum of eight continuous academic  terms provided a student registers on a full-time basis and maintains the required 11.0 cumulative average.

► Requests for deferral of undergraduate scholarships are considered on a case-by-case basis. Deferrals can only be granted for University-sponsored automatic entrance scholarships (exceptions may apply).
