University of Alberta, Canada

The University of Alberta funds international undergraduates through entrance scholarships that are considered automatically from the admission application, plus a smaller set of faculty and donor awards that need their own application. The records below include the automatic entrance awards and a long list of named scholarships, several tied to a specific faculty, sport or field of study, so the level and provider lines matter more here than the title.

Graduate funding at Alberta follows the Canadian research pattern. Doctoral and research master's students are supported by their department or supervisor, often building on the federal tri-council grants from NSERC, SSHRC and CIHR and the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships, and professional programs mostly rely on faculty awards and external funding. Alberta also runs provincial awards that some students qualify for through residency, which international students usually do not.

Because so many awards below are admission-linked, the deadline that matters for most international applicants is the admission deadline, shown on each card's official page. Alberta's scholarships site, reachable from every card, restates eligibility every year, and that is where you confirm whether a named award is open to students from your country and program.
