Yukon University Entrance Scholarship

About this award

Get up to $3,500 for tuition if you are entering a Yukon University certificate, diploma, or degree program in Fall 2026 with an 80%+ average.

You can receive a maximum of $3,500 for your first year of study, which is paid out over two sequential semesters. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back, but the money is applied toward your tuition only. This is for you if you have maintained a strong academic record and are starting your post-secondary journey at Yukon University. No deadline is posted publicly — before you start the application, check Yukon University's program page or call their office to confirm when applications open and close this year. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Yukon University how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds, though they do offer five scholarships in total. The money is sent as a tuition payment directly to your account. Ask Yukon University during your application to confirm exactly how the funds are applied to your balance so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Yukon University whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
