About this award

You get $670.00. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a high-achieving marketing student with a specific interest in the retail industry. You must apply by January 31, 2027. When you apply, ask Lakehead University how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, the portal, or phone. The Faculty of Business Administration recommends a student to the Eaton Foundation based on who has the highest academic standing in their third year of the Bachelor of Commerce program. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Lakehead University how they determine the highest standing and how many students are considered 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 a student majoring in Marketing in the Bachelor of Commerce program at Lakehead University. You must be in your third year of study, have the highest academic standing among your peers, and demonstrate an interest in retailing.

Tips for applying

Interest in RetailingAvoid giving a generic answer about liking shops. Instead, describe a specific project or experience that shows why you are interested in the retail sector. Mention a particular retail trend or company that fascinates you.
RealismAvoid assuming this is a guaranteed award. Instead, remember that this goes to the student with the highest standing in the entire third-year cohort. Focus on maintaining your grades while expressing your niche interest.
