TMU Scholarship Tips – Student Blog

C: Could you tell me about the prestigious entrance scholarships, and if students need an Offer of Admission before applying?

M: There are three Prestigious Entrance scholarships. 

One is the President’s Entrance Scholarship. For this, there are twelve recipients who are awarded $10,000 each year for four years, as long as they keep meeting the requirements. A minimum 90% final admission average (or international equivalent) is required for consideration. This award is renewable for each year of study, so it’s worth up to $40,000.

There’s also the Terence Grier Entrance Scholarship, which has one recipient. It covers your first-year tuition costs, and a minimum 85% final admission average is required. This is a one-time award and is non-renewable.

The third award is the International Student Leadership Award (ISLA), formerly known as the International Secondary School Merit Scholarship. There are up to seven international student recipients, and applicants are required to have a minimum 85% final admission average (or international equivalent). This award is entrance-only and is non-renewable.

Students can learn more about applying to these awards by visiting our scholarships and awards page. Applications are currently open and the application deadline can be found on the Scholarships and Awards website. Students do not need an Offer of Admission to apply. Once you’ve received an acknowledgement of your application from TMU, and you’ve successfully activated your TMU online identity, you can begin the process of applying for these awards on AwardSpring.
