Carleton University awards scholarships tenable at the University, in the Fall/Winter session of the year of offer, to entrance and in-course full-time undergraduate students who have demonstrated a high potential for university studies. The intention of the scholarship policy is to recognize, attract and provide incentives for excellence. The total value of the scholarship or scholarships awarded is determined by the student's most recent academic standing.
The following entrance scholarships will be offered in 2000-2001:

These scholarships may be continued each year of full-time enrolment, provided the student maintains a GPA of 10.0 or better. These scholarships require an application, which must be completed and returned to the Awards Office by May 15. Priority will be given to academic performance, but the committee will also consider the applicant's other interests and activities during secondary school.
Our other entrance scholarships are automatically offered to students who have been admitted to Carleton University with a high school average of 80 percent or better. Applications are not required for these awards. The scholarships range in value from $500 per year to $3,500. Most scholarships are renewable for a total of four years and have an academic requirements of 10.0 GPA or better for renewal. If a renewable scholarship is lost in one year, it can be regained in future years.
* Fifteen awards valued at $500 for the entrance year only, to be given to the top students entering Carleton from secondary schools in the Regional Municipality of Ottawa-Carleton. This award will be in addition to any other the student may receive from Carleton.
All in-course students and all graduating students who meet the academic requirements for the awarding of University in-course scholarships will be named to the Deans' Honour List for every year in which they qualify.
