Outstanding International Student Award

The Outstanding International Student (OIS) Award is a one-time, merit-based entrance scholarship awarded to qualified students when they are offered admission to UBC. Students selected for this award show strength academically and display involvement outside of the classroom.

• Be new to UBC, entering directly from secondary school or post-secondary (university or college).
• Be an international student studying at UBC on a Canadian study permit (student visa). (Changes to your citizenship status will affect your scholarship eligibility.)
• Demonstrate outstanding academic achievement and strong extracurricular involvement.
• Not be nominated for a need-and-merit-based International Scholars award.
