An African Diaspora Admission Scholarship in the amount of $1,000 has been established for students who attend the African Diaspora Youth Conference (ADYC) and attend any program of study at the University of Windsor, full-time, directly following secondary school. The scholarship will provide encouragement to students who might otherwise discount a university education to consider it among their life goals.
Students must apply for the scholarship during their first semester of study at the University. The application will be available on UWinsite Student through the Award Profile tile from August 1 to September 15.
For more information on how to apply for this and other scholarships, please visit Student Awards and Financial Aid or contact award1@uwindsor.ca.
