University of Winnipeg President’s Scholarships for World Leaders

The University of Winnipeg President’s Scholarship for World Leaders puts $5,000 toward the studies of international students who are entering one of the University’s divisions for the first time. Two things decide who is considered: an admission average of at least 80% or its equivalent, and a record of leadership activity. The award is for newcomers to the University, so current students are not the audience. Read the eligibility list before you start the admission file.

The President’s Scholarship for World Leaders are valued at $5,000.

Candidates must meet the following criteria:

• Have a minimum 80% admission average or equivalent
• Be an international student
• Entering the first year of any program
• Demonstrate exceptional leadership qualities
• Submit a complete admission application by the scholarship deadline date

This award fits an international student who is applying to the University of Winnipeg for the first time and whose grades reach the 80% admission average or its equivalent. If you have led a team, a club, a volunteer project or a community activity, that record belongs in your case for the scholarship.

It is not aimed at students already enrolled at the University, since entry into the first year of a program is part of the criteria.

Applicants must complete an application for admission to The University of Winnipeg and submit the supporting documents by the scholarship deadline date of 1 June annually.
