Transfer scholarships

Coming to the University of Alberta is a great choice, and we want to make it worth your while. There are a number of scholarships specifically for students transferring from another post-secondary institution.

Not sure what scholarships you're eligible for? No problem! Fill out our scholarship application and, based on your background, experiences, and interests, we'll assess you for a match.

All transfer scholarships are application-based.

Apply for Undergraduate Academic Scholarships and Undergraduate Leadership Awards»

Candidates must meet the following base academic criteria for transfer scholarships:

• Present an admission average that meets or exceeds those required for the specific scholarship.
• Be entering the first year of full-time studies in an undergraduate degree program at the University of Alberta in September of the upcoming year.

Additional scholarship criteria may apply. Candidate eligibility for specific scholarships will be assessed based on their admission information and their scholarship application.

Our scholarship competitions are competitive; there is no guarantee that meeting eligibility will result in a scholarship or award offer.

Transfer scholarship offers are conditional on the accuracy of your self-recorded grades. If there is a discrepancy between your self-recorded grades and your final official transcript, your scholarship offer could be revoked.
