supafield Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Western had a bunch in the financial aid section and a tool to search by the faculty you were in.... Mind you it's not the easiest place to find unless you know where to look. I applied for one award in August or September.... and one day in April received a cheque with the name of the award in the memo portion of the cheque and nothing else... I was a bit confused because I forgot I ever applied for it. So I imagine most schools would have more awards somewhere, they just may not be advertised. However, I could be wrong.

shannn Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Anyone from york know of any scholarships? Its just ridiculous how I can't find any. in the financial section, there is a search tool you can use to search up scholarships/bursaries (but be warned, the majority of them require you to get OSAP to be eligible) And if you have a high enough GPA, you are credited with a scholarship automatically in August (every August I got around $1000 - $1500 credited to my account) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I transferred into York, so no entrance money for me. Lemme dig up my financial record...it says: "York University Continuing Student Scholarship -1,020.00" My GPA each year was 8.7 (i.e. 3.94 according to OMSAS) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cnussey Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Are you a member of your faculty? At MUN Business, they send out emails of all the scholarships, job opportunities, etc. to all the BBA and Commerce students via email--the students who register, of course.

I just wished it was higher - should have done better in high school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shannn Posted July 6, 2010 Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 So I called them and they said its the same thing as the renewable entrance scholarship and I do get that. I just wished it was higher - should have done better in high school Oh, what the, lol, I never knew that. But that doesn't really make sense since I wasn't eligible to get entrance scholarship money (since I transferred into York, and only started getting the scholarship after 1 year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
