Western Continuing Admission Scholarship of Distinction for Black Students

• Admission scholarships for Black students are based on the top admission average and are available to domestic and international students. • Admission scholarships for indigenous students are based on overall academic performance. • These scholarships cannot be combined with National Scholarship or Schulich Leader Scholarship. • Students who have attended a post-secondary institution, or students who attended a post-secondary institution and then returned to secondary school, are not eligible • If you are applying for the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) please do not report scholarships from Western on your OSAP application - our office will report them to OSAP on your behalf. Please note that you are still responsible for reporting any external funding received (ie. not awarded by Western ) on your OSAP application. • Admission Scholarships cannot be deferred • The admission average calculation for 101 applicants includes prerequisite courses for the student’s selected program. • Admission averages are NOT rounded to the nearest whole percentage for scholarship consideration. • Western will determine averages for applicants who are not studying in a Canadian secondary school curriculum based on curriculum, grading practices, and grading scale interpretation.

• 10 scholarships at $2,500 for each scholarship • $2500 each year continuing for up to 4 years, plus $2,000 for optional study abroad experience.
