‘This scholarship is truly life-changing’ - McGill’s 2024 Schulich Leaders
Daniel Valentini couldn’t believe his eyes when he read the letter informing him of his Schulich Leader Scholarship.
“I called McGill to confirm, and they told me it was real. I think I was in shock,” says Valentini, a graduate of Dawson College in Montreal who is entering McGill’s Faculty of Science.
Valentini is one of six incoming Schulich Leaders at McGill, recipients of Canada’s largest Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) scholarship. The scholarships are valued at $100,000 for students pursuing Science, Technology or Mathematics programs and $120,000 for students studying Engineering.
