Carleton University, Canada

Carleton, in Ottawa, is one of the clearer Canadian universities for international undergraduates, because it names its international money directly. The President's Welcome Award for international students appears on this page, and it sits alongside the prestige scholarships and the additional entrance awards that Carleton decides from the admission application. For international students the admission application is effectively the scholarship application, so an early, complete application is the whole game.

Graduate funding at Carleton runs through the departments. Research-based master's and doctoral students are supported with assistantships and the federal programs common across Canada, including the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships and the tri-council grants, and several faculties run their own entrance awards for graduate students.

The national scholarships listed below, such as the Arthur Kroeger awards, are aimed at specific applicant groups, so read the eligibility line before planning around one. Carleton's awards office publishes current rounds and deadlines, and each official link leads to the page that states them, with the admission deadline applying to most entrance awards.
