Together, Huron University and Scotiabank aim to break down barriers for deserving students by helping them access higher education support services via the Scotiabank Scholars program.
The Scotiabank Scholars program is a unique two-year curriculum, designed by Huron University in collaboration with TVDSB, for high school students. Registered students will attend sessions on campus at Huron throughout Grade 11 and their Senior year(s). Topics will focus on skill and leadership development, while helping students link career goals with postsecondary opportunities.
Annually, up to 5 graduating students from the program will be selected for the Scotiabank Scholarship. The Scotiabank Scholarship provides full coverage of tuition and on campus housing during their four years of studying at Huron. The selection process will require a student application with a letter of recommendation from their school that will be due at a later date.
This form enables guidance counsellors and/or teachers to register deserving students who meet the eligibility criteria for the Scotiabank Scholars program.
