Following the launch of the new International Education Strategy, Global Affairs Canada is introducing a new pilot Study in Canada Scholarships program that will help promote a dynamic and diversified international education sector in Canada.

The pilot Study in Canada Scholarships program commits $5 million over five years to increase opportunities for post-secondary institutions across Canada to welcome international students from around the world.

Beginning in the 2020/2021 school year, the Study in Canada Scholarships program will provide full academic scholarships (to a maximum award value of CAD $60,000/year) for international students from eligible countries/territories for up to two years of study at the post-secondary level leading to a diploma, post-secondary or post-graduate certificate, or Master’s degree.

Canadian universities, colleges, technical and vocational institutes across Canada will be eligible to apply for scholarships on behalf of students from recipient countries/territories, to showcase the excellence of their programs and to expand their institution’s international engagement and linkages. The program is open to students from all disciplines.

For more information, please review the scholarship guidelines. Questions regarding the program can be directed to Scholarships-Info-Bourses@international.gc.ca.
