Lakehead University has announced a new scholarship program for high school students in Simcoe County.
As part of its scholarship program renewal, the new Northwestern Ontario and Simcoe County Citizenship Scholarship is available to every high school in the Northwestern Ontario and Simcoe County regions.
Designed for high school students who exhibit active citizenship within their high school and community, the scholarship will provide $12,000 over four years to successful applicants.
In total, there are 49 scholarships available to be awarded to high school students through a nomination process by each schools guidance office.
The new scholarship is part of Lakehead Universitys generous scholarship program, which offers up to four years of free tuition to Canadian students coming directly from a recognized Canadian high school with an average of 95% or higher.
Students dont have to apply for the free tuition scholarship as long as they have applied to Lakehead University. Academic scholarships are automatically awarded to students who meet the eligibility requirements.
