Limited funds are available to assist students travelling abroad or long distances within Canada on exchange or internship. Student Travel Fund awards are limited to a maximum of $1,500 per student.

Applications must be submitted to Kathie Hess, Senior Academic Counsellor, North Campus Building 240J. Decisions will be made by a scholarship review committee once all qualifying placements are confirmed.

In adjudicating students’ applications for funding, preference will be given to students who satisfy the following criteria:

The student must:

1. be formally accepted into an internship or exchange program;
2. achieve a cumulative average of 75%; and
3. have no other sources of funding which could support the travel.

Applications for a Student Travel Fund Award must consist of:

1. A brief statement describing the intended internship placement or exchange destination and the reasons why the applicant believes funding assistance should be provided; and
2. Sample budget for anticipated travel costs.
