What Takes Place Next?

Based on the information you supply and the supplementary materials you submit, your application will be evaluated and scored.

For applicants who are bachelor’s degree candidates, we will start by providing a small number of scholarships at the end of December 2022. The remaining scholarships will then be granted gradually starting in mid-January 2023. You should submit your application and supporting materials by December 5, 2022, at 5 p.m., to provide your application with the best opportunity possible of being taken into account during all offer rounds.

All offers will be provided to postgraduate and honors applicants after the application deadline of February 15, 2023, at 5:00 p.m.

Successful candidates will be notified via the email address they designated in their application portal accounts; unsuccessful candidates won’t be contacted.

Within six weeks following the application deadline, you’ll often learn if you were successful. By this point, you should have heard from an offer, therefore your application was unsuccessful. Through your account on the scholarship application portal, you can check the status of your application.
