President’s Scholarships

If you meet the conditions outlined below, you’ll be awarded a one-time University of Waterloo President’s Scholarship valued at $2,000.

• Your early May admission average, including required courses, must be 90 – 94.9% for the program for which you’ve received and accepted an Offer of Admission.

• You must accept your Offer of Admission by the date specified on the offer.

• You must be enrolled at Waterloo in full-time degree studies for the entire September to December term.

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 you’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 President’s or Merit Scholarship. You’ll be notified after we’ve received final grades in July.

• To receive the full value of the entrance scholarship, you must remain enrolled in full-time degree studies at Waterloo for the full 4-month fall term (September to December).
