UCPBA Scholarship

 

The Ukrainian Canadian Professional and Business Association of Ottawa awards up to two scholarships each year. Awards are made on the basis of academic merit and extracurricular accomplishments, in particular those contributing to the Ukrainian community. In some cases, financial need may also be taken into consideration in awarding the scholarship.

Applicants are evaluated for academic merit (transcripts, previous awards, and scholarships), volunteer activities, including those in the Ukrainian community, and extracurricular activities.

Although UCPBA Scholarship Recipients are not eligible to apply in the following year, unsuccessful Scholarship applicants are encouraged to apply each year. If the Scholarship Evaluation Committee deems that the scholarship applications received in a given year are not of sufficient quality, the Committee reserves the right not to award a Scholarship in that year.

The usual amount of the award is $1250.
