Students who are being admitted to KPU for the first time in Fall are invited to apply for KPU Major entrance scholarships and donor-funded entrance awards.
International Students who can provide transcripts and required documentation can also apply for consideration.
KPU Major Entrance Scholarships
- The President's Scholarship ($20,000)
- The Merit Scholarship ($5,000)
- The Indigenous Entrance Scholarship ($5,000)
Donor-funded Entrance Awards (only available for Fall)
- Awards range in value from $1,000 to $4,000
Entrance Award applicants will be short-listed and ranked by the Scholarships & Awards Selection Committee, based on the criteria of each award.
Award payment is subject to admission and confirmation of enrolment (minimum 12 credits per semester) and final marks of eligible candidates, prior to the disbursement of the award.
A minimum CGPA of 3.0 or greater is required for continuance purposes.
Major Entrance Scholarship payments will be divided between the September and January semesters, and applied to any outstanding tuition and fees first, (subject to continuance requirements). Any remaining balance will be made available to the award recipient in the form of a cheque.
All Entrance Award recipients are eligible to apply for other scholarships, awards and bursaries for which they meet the criteria.
Only one online application is required to be completed in order to be considered for any of the Entrance scholarships and awards.
Students who are being admitted to KPU for the first time in Fall, must complete a separate online application.
