ELIGIBILITY:

Students submitting an application must have an admissions average of 90% or better and have demonstrated leadership roles in their extracurricular activities throughout school.

Only candidates with no previous attendance at a post-secondary educational institution (college or university, excluding CEGEP) will be considered. The student must be pursuing post-secondary studies for the first time.

Their highest awards are our Prestige Scholarships:

The Chancellor’s Scholarship

The Richard Lewar Entrance Scholarship

The Carleton University Scholarship of Excellence

The Carleton University SHAD Scholarship

The Jay Woo and CAA Scholarship

The Riordon Scholarship

You will be considered for a prestige scholarship only if you are entering Carleton directly from high school or CEGEP. Students who have previously attended a post-secondary educational institution (either college or university) are not eligible for these awards. For all prestige scholarships, you must achieve an admission average of 90 percent or better. The selection committee will also assess the range of your community’s or secondary school’s extracurricular activities.

Before applying: Be aware that one application form is used for all the prestige scholarships.
