International bursaries
Bursaries are awarded to international undergraduate and graduate students who experience financial crisis during their school year. Undergraduate applicants must maintain registration in a minimum of 4.5 units for credit in each term (3.0 units for students with a permanent disability) for which they have been awarded the bursary. Graduate recipients must maintain registration as a full-time student in each term for which they have been awarded the bursary. For continuing students, a minimum GPA of 2.0 in the previous academic session is required.
All applicants are advised to send an email to finaid@uvic.ca explaining their extenuating circumstances. If you are eligible to apply, an application will be sent via email.
