Scholarships at University of Windsor

Students entering directly from full-time secondary school who have achieved academic excellence are considered for automatic entrance scholarships, regardless of the program they choose.

Automatic entrance scholarship offers are based on a student’s best six final and interim Grade 12 U/M level qualifying courses (or equivalent) available in May or CEGEP courses, provided that you have no previous attendance at post-secondary educational institutions. Co-op courses are not included in your 12O admission average (the average of your top 6, Grade 12 U/M level courses). A student's 12O average may or may not include courses required for admission into their program of choice.
