Elsa Eleonora Fagerberg & Clara Maria Fagerberg Entrance Scholarship*

One or more scholarships, to a maximum of $20,000, payable over four years, are awarded to academically outstanding undergraduate students entering the University of Victoria from Canadian secondary schools, colleges and universities. The selection of recipients is based on academic excellence, breadth of interest, and leadership qualities.

To be automatically renewed a student must have completed a total of 12 or more academic units in any two terms of study between May and April and maintained a grade point average of 7.50/9.00 or higher on the best 12 units. The scholarship is automatically renewed for each year of a student's full time study (12 or more units) until the completion of a first degree or for a maximum of three years, whichever is the shorter period. A student whose grade point average falls below 7.50/9.00 may file a written appeal with the Senate Committee on Awards to seek special consideration for renewal of the scholarship.

Students registered in a co-op or work experience work term will automatically be renewed when they next complete 12 or more academic units in two terms, provided they have a grade point average of 7.50/9.00 or higher in the two terms. Any student who takes neither a co-op, work experience work-term, nor academic units for more than one term may forfeit their scholarship.
