Bourses Perspective Québec / Quebec Perspective Scholarships

Value

$2,500 per term, up to a total of $20,000 for a 4-year program (i.e. U1 through U4 = 8 terms at $2500/term)

Undergraduate students in a Foundation Year (U0) program may be eligible if they successfully complete a minimum of 12 credits at the U1 level in a given term.

The scholarship will be awarded to students after each successful completion of a full-time term of study. Since the amount paid under this program is considered as income, recipients will receive a tax slip at the end of the year.

Eligibility

Students are deemed eligible, if they are:

• Registered at McGill as a Quebec Resident according to the Regulation respecting the definition of a Quebec resident and posses a valid Quebec Permanent Code.

• Studying on a full-time basis (12 credits or more) for the semester in question (i.e. Students can make course selection changes until the term's Add/Drop deadline; however, 12 credits or more must be maintained in each term to remain eligible.) OR Deemed full-time (at least 6 credits) for students with a documented disability, certain family situations such as a young dependent child, or other exceptions to be defined by the Government of Québec. (Students who must be part-time can only do so with permission and are required to submit ISA’s Request for Permission to Study Part-time form each term by the term's add/drop deadline.)

• Not receiving the Bourse d'Excellence for the same semester. (Students can not receive both the Bourse Perspective Québec and the Bourse d'Excellence for the same semester.)
