James & Elise Devitt Graduate Scholarship

Two scholarships, valued at up to $5,000 each, are awarded annually to full-time University of Waterloo graduate students in any graduate program. The fund was established by a donation from Elise Devitt, a Waterloo retired staff member, in memory of her husband, T. James Devitt. The scholarship recognizes scholastic excellence and demonstrated interest in graduate studies while addressing financial need. Recipients must be Ontario residents who have lived in Ontario for 12 months prior to beginning their post-secondary education. The award is open to both master's and doctoral students across all faculties and programs at the University of Waterloo. Selection is made by Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs on a university-wide rotating basis.
