UVic has two types of entrance scholarships: scholarships based on admission average and application-based scholarships.

Most entrance scholarships based on admission average do not require an application. For more information on these entrance scholarships see the scholarships based on admission average information.

Yes, if you are starting a course or are in the middle of the course we ask that you accurately predict your mark.  If you do not self-report before March 15th you will not be considered for scholarships based on admission average at a later date.

Please note, we will be reviewing your final marks in August before finalizing your scholarship. It is at this time adjustments may be made to your scholarship offer based on final marks. 

We will be reviewing all final marks in August before issuing scholarship funds. Please note, it is at this time that your scholarship may be upgraded, adjusted or withdrawn based on your final marks. If your final admission average falls below the minimum admission average required for the Winter Session in which you are entering UVic you will not be eligible for any entrance scholarships offered. UVic does not round up percentages.

Note: As early scholarship offers are based on self-reported marks, students need to maintain their self-reported marks to receive their original scholarship offer based on finals.

Students will receive an email in early August if there are any changes made to their original scholarship offer.

Yes, if your scholarship has been withdrawn or adjusted and you have any extenuating circumstances you are encouraged to submit an appeal. Appeals should be accompanied by any supporting documents (for example, a letter from a doctor or school counsellor).

Students will receive an email containing appeal information and the deadline for submission in early August.  Please email your appeal letter and supporting documentation to the Entrance Scholarship Officer at awards2@uvic.ca.

Note: Appeals must come from the student, unless the student is unable due to medical circumstances. 

This depends on whether we can use the same courses to calculate the admission average that were used for your first choice of faculty and whether the terms of the scholarship offered are for a specific faculty. For example, a Faculty of  Engineering and Computer Science entrance scholarship will be withdrawn if the student switches to another faculty. Please contact the Entrance Scholarship Officer or Scholarship Assistant at the contact information below for more details if you have switched faculties.

You must accept your scholarship via your UVic Online tools. For more information please see How to accept.        

Yes, to receive the full value of your scholarship you must be enrolled in a minimum of 12.0 graded units at the 番茄社区 in the Winter Session (September-April). Waitlisted courses are not included. If you drop below 12.0 graded units in the Winter Session, your scholarship will be withdrawn.

Exceptions:

Students entering UVic in Term 2 (January to April) of the Winter Session or entering in the Summer Session (May to August) must register and maintain enrollment in a minimum of 6.0 graded units at the 番茄社区 to remain eligible for UVic scholarships.

Students who are transferring into UVic and require a co-op work-term in Term 2 (January to April) must register and maintain enrollment in a minimum of 6.0 graded units in Term 1 (September to April) to remain eligible for UVic scholarships. Please contact the Entrance Scholarship Officer if you will be on a co-op work-term in Term 2.

Students who are registered with the Centre for Accessible Learning (CAL) are eligible for a reduced course load of a minimum of 6.0 graded units at the 番茄社区 over the Winter Session (September to April). Students are required to have a letter from CAL confirming they are registered with that office.

Any student who withdraws from 12.0 graded units in the Winter Session (September-April) will have their entire scholarship withdrawn.

Yes, in some cases you can still be eligible for your entrance scholarship if you are enrolled in fewer than 12.0 graded units.

• You will need to write a letter to the Senate Committee on Awards regarding why you are enrolled in a reduced course load or, in some cases, why you are requesting a semester off. A request for a reduced course load due to medical reasons will require documentation from a medical professional, and a request for a semester off to volunteer will require an outline of the program.
• Students with a disability do not have to write a letter to the Committee, but will need government documentation or registration with the Centre for Accessible Learning for a reduced course load, and must identify themselves to the Entrance Scholarship Officer or Scholarship Assistant at the contact information below.

No, entrance scholarships are valid only at the 番茄社区.

Students can apply to defer their admission and scholarship for up to one year from Undergraduate 番茄社区. If the deferral request is granted by Undergraduate 番茄社区 your scholarship will automatically be deferred, provided we have reviewed final marks and the student is still in range of the scholarship offered.

Please contact the Entrance Scholarship Officer if you are requesting a deferral and we will make note on your scholarship account.

If a student's deferral request is not granted, the student can re-apply for an entrance scholarship in the following academic year as a secondary school graduate, providing the student did not attend another post-secondary institution in the gap year. Please see the guidelines on applying for entrance scholarships as a secondary school graduate.

Note:if you re-apply for an entrance scholarship, you are not guaranteed the same value of scholarship the next year.
