What scholarships can I apply for studying in Canada?

Can students studying in Canada apply for scholarships? I believe many students are concerned about this problem. So this will tell you about the scholarships you can apply for studying in Canada.

I. Scholarships for Studying Abroad

1, Canadian National Scholarship

The scholarship is jointly managed and awarded by the Canadian Institute of Health Research, the Canadian College of Natural Sciences and Engineering and the Canadian Academy of Humanities and Social Sciences. Qualification refers to students' academic performance, scientific research potential and leadership ability.

The Wannier Scholarship involves doctoral students in social sciences, humanities, natural sciences, engineering, health and leadership. The amount of scholarship is 50,000 Canadian dollars per person per year, and the maximum time for each person to receive funding is no more than 3 years.

2. Ontario Postgraduate Scholarship

Ontario Postgraduate Scholarship (OGS) is a scholarship to encourage students to pursue master's and doctoral degrees in Ontario. There are more than 1 000 places every year, and each place is about10.5 million Canadian dollars. In order to reward students for further study, universities often give outstanding students several OGS, and some outstanding students get several scholarships at the same time, with an annual amount as high as 30 thousand Canadian dollars.

Scholarships are generally only given for one academic year, and can be extended by 1 year for master students and up to 3 years for doctoral students. The scholarship will be terminated if the academic performance is average or terminated after 1 year. Generally speaking, there is a time limit for teaching assistants or research assistants. In order to encourage new students, this allowance is usually not extended after its expiration.

3. Ontario Trillium Scholarship

The announcement of Ontario Trillium Scholarship 20 10 1 1 will help the best doctoral students from all over the world to study in Ontario, Canada.

There are 75 scholarships every year, and the first batch of students who get scholarships will enter Ontario in September 20 1 1. The applicant must be an international student with a Canadian study permit and full-time doctoral study.

4. Canadian University Scholarships

In addition to the above-mentioned doctoral and master's scholarships at the Canadian government level, Canadian universities will also set up some scholarship programs to encourage students to concentrate on their studies. And these Canadian undergraduate university scholarships, as long as the conditions are excellent enough, still have the opportunity to get scholarships.

Second, the cost of living in Canada.

Canadian student visa requires students to reserve at least 65,438+00,000 Canadian dollars in addition to tuition fees, but the living expenses will vary according to the geographical location and consumption habits of the city where the students live. Usually the cost of living in big cities is higher. The following will make a detailed analysis of all aspects of expenses from four aspects: accommodation, food, transportation and medical insurance.

Accommodation: Although many universities provide dormitories for students, being admitted to a Canadian school does not necessarily mean that you can live in a dormitory. Students need to apply for dormitory separately, and the fees vary from school to school. If you rent a house, the average rent for a two-bedroom apartment in Canada in 2020 will be 65,438 Canadian dollars +0, 165 Canadian dollars per month, but the price will change with different cities, communities and types of accommodation. In areas with higher housing prices, the increase in accommodation costs will be more obvious. For example, Vancouver has an average of $65,438 +0.508 Canadian dollars, and Toronto has an average of $65,438 +0.523 Canadian dollars. In addition, you may need to pay for telephone, internet, TV, telephone and so on. Some students are sometimes asked to pay for the use of the kitchen after sharing an apartment or house. Internet access costs about 50-70 dollars per month, and other expenses (including water, electricity, heating, etc. ) It costs about 150 USD per month.

Diet: The most economical way is to buy food and cook by yourself, with an average of about $300 per month. If you eat in a restaurant, the cost will increase obviously. The minimum per person per meal ranges from $ 10 to $25. If you go to a good intermediate restaurant, you may need $50 to $65 per person per meal.

Transportation: Depending on where you live, you can choose to walk or ride. Students in big cities can also choose public transportation. Buses, subways, trains, etc. The one-way fare of public transportation is usually a few Canadian dollars, and the monthly ticket ranges from 80 to 150 Canadian dollars. If you drive by car, according to the current rate of oil price increase, this part of the cost may far exceed expectations.

Third, the advantages of studying in Canada

1, first-class education level

Canada is one of the few countries with the most complete education system and the highest education level in the world.

2. Pay attention to rigorous scholarship.

Canada is one of the countries with the highest education investment. The education rate of the national population is 99%.

3. Reasonable expenses

While ensuring the quality of education, Canadian universities charge overseas students a little less than other western countries. For example, the cost in the United States and Britain is about 250,000-300,000 RMB per year, and the cost of studying in Canada is about150,000-200,000 RMB per year.

4, the world's leading level of science and technology

Canada is one of the seven industrialized countries in the west, with a highly developed economy.

5. Part-time, paid internships and job opportunities

Work regulations are: study for 20h/ week, vacation for 40h/ week, generally 10 Canadian dollars/hour (tax is required, but tax refund can be made when returning to China). At the same time, the school also provides opportunities for paid internships.

6, study abroad immigrants in one step.

7. You can apply without a language.
