Can I receive a refund of scholarship funds?

Scholarship funds are automatically applied towards your Winter Session (September to April) fees. If you have a credit remaining in your account after the funds have been applied to full-time studies, you may request a refund from tuition@uvic.ca after the last day to add courses for the fall term. Please note, if you withdraw from full-time studies (minimum of 12.0 academic units) during the Winter Session, your scholarship may be withdrawn and, if you have received a refund cheque, tuition will now be added to your tuition and fees account. 

Am I still eligible if I drop or withdraw from a course?

If you drop or withdraw from a class and fall below 12.0 academic units in the Winter Session (September to April) your scholarship will be withdrawn. All UVic scholarships require a student to register and maintain enrolment in 12.0 academic units in two terms of study, unless they are in a registered co-op/work-term or are registered with the Centre for Accessible Learning (CAL).

If you have any questions about whether you will be in jeopardy of losing your scholarship due to course withdrawal, please contact the Entrance Scholarship Officer at  or the In-course Scholarship Officer at awards1@uvic.ca.

Please note that if you drop a class and fall below 12.0 academic units of study, you will no longer be eligible for the general in-course scholarships for the following academic year.
