Macdonald Heaslip Scholarships

These renewable scholarships are granted to two UPEI students entering Year 2 of any four-year undergraduate degree program. Recipients must be Canadian citizens enrolled in full time studies of Year 2 of their degree and demonstrate financial need as determined through review of their application. Students must have a cumulative average of at least 70% in Year 1 of their studies, and maintain a cumulative average of at least 70% in all subsequent years for the award to be renewed for a maximum of three years of funding: Year 2, Year 3, and Year 4 of full time study. The scholarships were established by Nona and William (Bill) Heaslip through the William and Nona Heaslip Foundation to support undergraduate students at UPEI and nine other Canadian universities. The foundation was created to honor the legacy of Bill Heaslip, co-founder of Grafton Group Ltd., and Nona Macdonald Heaslip, whose father attended Saint Dunstan's College, a predecessor institution of UPEI.
