The Study in Canada Scholarships program provides students from post-secondary institutions located in the new eligible countries/territories with short-term exchange opportunities for study or research in Canadian post-secondary institutions at the college, undergraduate and graduate levels.
This student exchange program replaces the full-degree-based Study in Canada Scholarships program piloted in 2020. At least 50 scholarships will be awarded in the next competition, with the number increasing each year.

ScholarshipsCanada.com is part of the SchoolFinder Group.
The site has been helping students find scholarships since 1997. Our mission is to help students realize their dreams.
We do this by making it possible for students to attend the school of their choice without being limited by the cost. The website lists all relevant scholarships and bursaries free of charge. We endeavour to update each listing on an annual basis. Students are matched to scholarships and bursaries when they create an account. In addition to matching, ScholarshipsCanada.com provides additional resources such as Scholarship Deadline Alerts. These are available in the Dashboard. We do not charge for posting scholarships and bursaries on the site. We do not charge students for using the site. Revenue is generated through banner ads, email campaigns (for which students must opt in) and feature scholarships
