Applying for Canadian Scholarships

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Brooke Kramer, and I'm a financial aid officer with Argosy University, in Salt Lake City, and today, we're going to talk about how to find a Canadian scholarship, and it's pretty much going to be the same way, as you find a scholarship in America. You're pretty much going to go to, well first, contact your financial aid officer at the Canadian University, and they should be able to hook you up with their private scholarships available through the University, as well as connect you with local community organizations that offer scholarships. You will also want to make yourself eligible for these scholarships, and the best way to do that, is to start early, and get started in leadership activities, completing lots of community service activities, as well as maintaining a high grade point average, to help you qualify for as many as possible. You might also want to research essays, since many scholarships require that you complete an essay, and when you do complete an essay, you want to make sure it's very tight, concise, and that you're using good grammar.
