Undergraduate Studies and Scholarships in Canada

Admission Support - Study in Canada with Scholarship

Want to study in Canada? Here is a list of scholarships you can consider while applying to Canadian Universities.

With advanced curriculum, state-of-the-art laboratories, distinguished professors, affordable tuition fees, and ample scholarship opportunities, ‘Canadian’ dream has gradually taken over the ‘American’ Dream among Indian students. Canada right now houses more than 100 globally-recognized universities; however, the first thing you need to do is contemplate, discuss, and answer – how much amount you (or your parents) are ready to spend on your undergraduate study?

Studying in a foreign country, whether it is UK, US, or Canada can be expensive unless you have received some scholarships, assistantship, or financial aid. We would highly recommend taking advantage of the time available between your college application and admission decision to work on finance opportunities for your studies. Students with exceptional academics, outstanding leadership experience, and significant extracurricular and community involvement stand a good chance of receiving  monetary rewards and fellowships. Below are some scholarships, offered by Canadian Universities, you should consider before applying to the universities.
