The University of Guelph in Canada offers several funding opportunities for international undergraduate students, including international entrance scholarships, dean’s scholarships, transfer scholarships, in-course awards, bursaries, work-study options, co-op income opportunities, and paid undergraduate research assistantships.
International students may earn up to CAD $37,500 in international entrance scholarships over four years, depending on eligibility and scholarship type. However, this is not a fully funded scholarship, and students should carefully check the real cost of study before applying. The university estimates annual international student expenses between CAD $64,589 and CAD $88,498
Benefits
Eligibility
For some major scholarships, no separate scholarship application is required. Eligible students are considered through their admission file and notified through their admission offer.
Deadline Status
Important warning
The official page currently lists several Fall 2026 scholarship deadlines that have already passed:
Complete admission file deadline for major entrance scholarship consideration: March 1, 2026
Dr. Franco J. Vaccarino President’s Scholarship application deadline: January 23, 2026

Who Should Apply?
This opportunity is best for international students who want to study in Canada at the undergraduate level and are looking for partial scholarship support. It is especially useful for students who can combine scholarship funding with family sponsorship, savings, co-op income, part-time work, or other financial support.
This is not ideal for students searching only for fully funded undergraduate scholarships.
