Canadian Centennial Scholarship Fund (CCSF)

Founded in 1967 by the Canadian Women's Club to mark Canada's centennial, the CCSF has awarded some 500 scholarships to outstanding students from across Canada who are enrolled in postgraduate programmes at UK universities, colleges, institutes or conservatories. Recipients are chosen on the basis of academic or artistic excellence and their ability to represent Canada in the UK. They represent a breadth of academic interests and pursuits. Awards are granted to scholars from a wide range of disciplines including science, engineering, social science and humanities as well as music, creative arts and design. Applicants must be Canadian citizens currently enrolled in a postgraduate programme of 2 years or longer at a full-time UK university or similar institution, and have completed at least one term of study with at least one term remaining.
