Information on Scholarships
Memorial University offers its students many opportunities to receive scholarships and awards. Generally, there are three categories that these fall under:
Entrance Scholarships: Available to new students entering Memorial University.
Undergraduate Scholarships: Available to continuing students at Memorial University . There are three types of undergraduate scholarships:
- Faculty-Recommended Scholarships: Certain faculty/departments have scholarships and awards specific to their area of study. Candidates for these scholarships and awards are recommended by the faculty or department. Students should declare a Faculty and/or Major as early as possible if they wish to be considered for certain faculty-specific undergraduate scholarships.
- Application Based Scholarships (Very specific criteria): These scholarships can only be awarded to a student who has completed this application form and submitted required documentation (if any). Some scholarships on the application form are also open to entrance students.
- General Scholarships: These scholarships are not affiliated with an academic department and are open to all undergraduate students who meet the scholarship standing requirements. These awards are awarded based on a variety of criteria such as academics, financial needs, place of residence, etc.
The Travel Scholarships are available to students who completed at least two years of a degree program at MUN and who are accepted to attend a recognized university outside Canada for one or two semesters of study for transfer credit back to Memorial.
External Travel Scholarships: These scholarships are not administered by Memorial University, and questions should be directed to the organization offering the scholarship. For further information please contact the International Centre: (709) 864-4053
