Sheridan Degree Entrance Scholarship

Many of our degree programs offer entrance scholarships — ranging from $1,000–$3,000.

Eligible applicants are automatically considered for these scholarships based on their previous academic achievement (no separate application is required).

If you're a recipient of a degree entrance scholarship, you'll be notified with your offer of admission. 

Eligibility criteria

To be eligible for a degree entrance scholarship, you must:

  • Be a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.
  • Have received an offer of admission, to an eligible Sheridan degree program, that states that you're a recipient of the degree entrance scholarship.
  • Meet all the admission requirements for your program, including the required admission GPA threshold (or greater) at the time of your offer of admission. (You can view this in your Sheridan Application Portal.)
  • Have met the entrance scholarship qualification based on the program-specific admissions GPA of the six highest Grade 12 senior-level credits, including required courses.
  • Be enrolled as a full-time student, paying full-time fees, for the program, entrance level and semester indicated in your offer of admission.
