About this award

You get $3,142.00 for this award. As a scholarship, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a high-achieving student starting your graduate journey in the field of history. You must apply by February 2, 2027. When you apply, ask Lakehead University how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, the portal, or phone. Selection is based on high academic achievement from your previous undergraduate term average. Selection criteria aren't published in detail — ask Lakehead University how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Lakehead University during your application how the money will reach you — some awards pay students directly, others apply funds to tuition. Confirm this so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Lakehead University whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

To qualify, you must be confirmed by Graduate Studies to be entering the Masters in History. Selection is based on high academic achievement from your previous undergraduate term average.
