Hu Harries Memorial Entrance Leadership Awards

The Hu Harries Memorial Entrance Leadership Awards are awarded annually to Canadian citizens or permanent residents with satisfactory academic achievement entering the first year of an undergraduate degree at the University of Alberta. Applicants must be or have been a volunteer of the YMCA, YWCA, or similar institution. Recipients will be chosen on the basis of academic promise, leadership qualities, and social conscience. Financial need may be considered. This award was established by endowed funds from friends and family of the late Hu Harries, who was the first Dean of Commerce at the University of Alberta. The scholarship recognizes students who demonstrate both academic potential and community leadership through volunteer service.
