Canadian Centennial Scholarship Fund

Canadian Centennial Scholarship Fund

The Canadian Centennial Scholarship Fund (CCSF) offers annual scholarships of £5,000 each to eligible Canadians studying for a postgraduate degree in the United Kingdom who have completed their first year of study. The CCSF works closely with the Maple Leaf Trust to provide funding year to year, supporting outstanding Canadian students pursuing advanced degrees at UK universities, colleges, institutes or conservatories. The scholarship recognizes exceptional Canadian post-graduate students and provides both financial support and legitimacy to their research. Recipients have noted that being recognized by this outstanding organization brings value beyond the financial award, as it confirms the importance and impact of their research contributions to Canada. The CCSF is managed by a committee of unpaid volunteers and offers both general awards and named scholarships on behalf of major donors. Past scholars have expressed feeling honored by being recognized by the Canadian community in the UK. The fund aims to promote Canada's future by helping outstanding students advance their education and research.
