Scholarship Details

The value of the award is proportional to demonstrated financial need which cover tuition, fees, and living costs, minus the financial contribution you and your family can make annually. A standard needs-assessment is based on the financial information provided by you and your family.

The International Leader of Tomorrow Award can be renewed for up to three additional years of undergraduate study or to degree completion, whichever is less. Your award may be renewed provided you achieve satisfactory academic standing in your faculty, continue to demonstrate financial need, and maintain your Canadian study permit (student visa).

Eligibility Criteria :

To be considered for the Donald A. Wehrung International Student Award, the candidate must:

be applying for your first undergraduate degree
be admissible to the first-choice degree you are applying to, including meeting UBC’s English Language Admission Standard
have an excellent academic record (at least an “A” average or equivalent standard)
be an international student – neither a Canadian citizen nor a permanent resident of Canada – who will be studying in Canada on a Canadian study permit (student visa)
demonstrate a level of financial need that would otherwise prevent you from pursuing a UBC degree
be entering a UBC undergraduate degree program from a recognized secondary school, college, or other university

Nomination

Candidate may be nominated by their secondary school, by a recognized international development agency and its affiliate, or by a registered local or international charitable and not-for-profit organization.

A school, agency, or organization may nominate only one student for undergraduate study at UBC’s Okanagan or Vancouver campuses.

Once a school nominates a student, no other students from the same school can be nominated by an agency or organization for this award.

How to apply

An application to a UBC undergraduate program and a nomination for International Leader of Tomorrow Award are separate processes, and will be independently evaluated.

Complete an online application for undergraduate admission to UBC at you.ubc.ca. Use your full legal name exactly as it appears in your passport or other official documentation.

Although you can specify two degree choices in your application for admission, your award consideration will be based only on your first-choice degree
