Graduate awards, scholarships and bursaries
The Faculty of Business Administration is privileged to have strong and dedicated supporters and alumni within the business community whose financial contributions support student success. This generosity translates to over $62,000 in awards, scholarships and bursaries for graduate business students each year, enabling them to pursue excellence in their academic programs. There are additional external Scholarships, Awards and Bursaries available through the School of Graduate Studies.
Applications for our scholarships, awards and bursaries open in December. The deadline to apply is normally in early January.
