Vikes International Athlete Award
One or more awards of $50,000 payable at $10,000 per year over 5 years, are given to international undergraduate students entering or transferring to UVic and who compete on any Vikes Varsity team at the University of Victoria.
The award is automatically renewed for each year of a student's full-time study until the completion of their first undergraduate degree or for a maximum of four years, whichever is the shorter period, provided they meet and maintain U SPORTS eligibility requirements.
Award nominees will be selected on the basis of work ethic, commitment and performance criteria by the Director, Varsity Performance Sport in consultation with the Head Coaches. Approval of the recipients will be made by the Senate Committee on Awards upon the recommendation of the Department of Wellness, Recreation and Athletics.
