Hey! I’m planning to apply for undergrad in Canada and was wondering if there are any universities that offer full scholarships to international students? It’d be a huge help if someone could share names or tips on where to look. Thanks in advance!
Hey! Yeah, there are a few that offer full-ride or super generous scholarships for international students, but they’re pretty competitive. University of Toronto has the Lester B. Pearson Scholarship—it’s fully funded and covers tuition, books, and even living expenses. Also, UBC has the International Scholars Program, which is similar and really great if you’ve got strong academics + some leadership or community work. Worth checking both out early ‘cause their deadlines can be way ahead of regular ones.
Adding to that—York University has the Global Leader of Tomorrow scholarship and the International Entrance one, both are solid options if your grades and extracurriculars are strong. Also, I’ve heard some smaller unis like Carleton or SFU offer entrance awards that, while not always full, can still cover a big chunk. Just make sure to apply early and keep an eye on the separate forms—some scholarships aren’t automatic with your admission app. Let me know if you want links or help finding them!
