Apply to Western University’s main campus

Apply directly from secondary school

Register as full-time undergraduate students

Have a minimum overall academic average of 90% or equivalent

Receive a nomination from their secondary school

Complete the National Scholarship application

Demonstrate exceptional academic and extracurricular achievement

Western allows each school to nominate up to four students for the National Scholarship Program and permits an additional nomination when that student is an international visa student. A 90% average is only the minimum requirement. Since only three International President’s Entrance Scholarships are awarded, applicants should have an exceptionally strong academic and extracurricular profile.

Automatic Admission Scholarships

Register as full-time first-year students

Meet the required admission average

Satisfy all conditions in their admission offer

For the Scholarship of Distinction, the required average is

92.0% to 100.0%.

For the Western Admission Scholarship, the required average is

90.0% to 91.9%. The Scholarship of Excellence is awarded competitively to students with the highest admission averages. International students do not need to convert their grades into Canadian percentages. Western calculates the equivalent admission average using the grading system of the applicant’s secondary-school curriculum.

A recognised bachelor’s degree

for Western University Scholarships?

International President’s Entrance Scholarship

• Apply for undergraduate admission to Western University’s main campus through the Ontario Universities’ Application Centre (OUAC).

You need your OUAC reference number before you can access Western’s National Scholarship application.

• Ask your secondary school for a National Scholarship nomination.

A school nomination is compulsory. Western allows schools to nominate up to four students, with one additional nomination available for an international visa student. Do not assume that your school will nominate you automatically. Speak with your counsellor, principal, or scholarship coordinator early.

• Complete the online National Scholarship application.

The scholarship application assesses academic performance and broader achievement, including:

Leadership

Community service

Extracurricular activities

Creative and innovative thinking

Personal accomplishments

Academic interests

• Prepare the required scholarship essay carefully.

Western requires an original essay as part of the National Scholarship application. Use a specific argument and real examples rather than writing a generic personal statement.

• Arrange the required school documents.

Your school must provide the required transcript and reference letter.

Students receiving the study-abroad component must complete an approved Western international learning experience to receive that portion of the award.

Graduate and PhD Funding

• Choose a research-based Western master’s or PhD programme related to your academic background and research interests.

Research programmes generally provide stronger funding opportunities than coursework-only graduate programmes.
