You cannot apply yet: the university says the Fall 2026 competition has closed and the Fall 2027 application will be available in early January 2027, with a deadline of April 15 at 4:00 p.m. It is a $2,000 bursary for Black, Indigenous (First Nations, Inuit or Métis) or racialized students entering a full-time program at the University of Guelph-Humber who demonstrate financial need. No offer of admission is required to apply, only your Admission's Acknowledgement email and the seven-digit student number on it. Offers go out by email in late May, to successful applicants only.
How to Apply
- Eligibility
- Application
You must have applied to any full-time program at the University of Guelph-Humber, be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident of Canada or protected person, be a Black, Indigenous (First Nations, Inuit, or Metis), and/or racialized student, and have received your Admission's Acknowledgement email with your seven-digit student identification number. An offer of admission is not required to complete the application. This award cannot be held with the Registrar's Need-Based Entrance Bursary.
Complete the online form for the Diversity Entrance Bursary. The university says the application for the Fall 2026 entrance award competition is now closed and that the Fall 2027 application will be available in early January 2027. You will need your OUAC-ID, your Guelph-Humber student ID number, your 2024 income tax return forms and those of your parents, guardians or spouse, your bank account and investment balances, and your estimated summer earnings. Complete the form only once and check it before you submit, because you cannot return to it afterwards; changes go to Student Financial Services by email with your student number and full name. Entrance bursary and scholarship offers are emailed in late May, to successful applicants only. The bursary is credited to your university account in two equal payments, one at the start of each of the fall and winter semesters.
