Overview

The Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS) Program offers merit-based scholarships for Master's and PhD students at participating universities in Ontario, Canada. It aims to recognize and reward academic excellence across all disciplines, supporting scholars in building strong academic profiles and expanding professional opportunities.

Coverage

The scholarship provides CAD $10,000 for two consecutive study terms or CAD $15,000 for three consecutive study terms within an academic year. Beyond financial support, recipients gain recognition for academic excellence, opportunities for networking and collaboration, and enhanced professional prospects in Canada. It allows students to focus on their research and academic advancement.

Eligibility

Ethiopian students are eligible as the scholarship is open to all national and international applicants. To be considered, applicants must be pursuing graduate studies at the Master's or doctoral level and be enrolled in a full-time program for at least two terms (21 to 52 weeks) during the academic year of application. Applicants must also be attending one of the participating Ontario universities. The scholarship is merit-based, with applications assessed and ranked according to criteria set by the specific university.

Requirements

Required documents typically include an online application form, academic transcripts, two letters of recommendation, a valid passport or national ID, a CV or Resume, a personal motivation letter, and a health certificate.

How to apply

The application process is managed by individual universities. Prospective applicants should use the OGS application form provided by their chosen Ontario university, usually available in October. If applying to multiple graduate programs at different universities, a separate OGS application must be submitted for each institution. It is crucial to contact the Graduate Studies Office at the intended university for specific details on their application process, required documents, and review procedures.

Notes

The application deadline for the Ontario Graduate Scholarship Program varies by institution and specific program. Applicants are advised to check directly with the Graduate Studies Office of their prospective university for the exact deadline. The scholarship has lifetime maximums: 2 academic years for Master's students, 4 academic years for Doctoral students, and a total lifetime limit of 6 academic years for all students.
