Canada might be one of the most coveted destinations for international students, but unfortunately studying here doesn’t come cheap.
For those keen to study in Canada but in need of financial support, we’ve rounded up a selection of scholarships for international students, provided by the Canadian government, individual Canadian universities, and other organizations.
Scholarships in Canada are quite competitive as they are very limited in number as compared to scholarships offered by other countries like USA, UK or Australia. The eligibility for scholarships for international students aspiring to study in Canada is judged on the basis of outstanding academic grades and exceptional English Proficiency scores.
Scholarships are majorly offered at the entrance level but for some scholarships the students are supposed to prove their excellence in academics in the subsequent years of education as well.
