Florence Women's Scholarship*

A scholarship of $15,000 is awarded to an academically outstanding undergraduate woman student entering the Faculty of Engineering and Computer Science who: • is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident, • graduated from a BC high school, • has interest in pursuing Mechanical, Electrical, Civil, Biomedical or Software Engineering. Preference is for students who have demonstrated community service through volunteering in their community. Students who meet the preference must submit a statement (maximum 350 words) outlining their volunteer contributions. To be automatically renewed a student must have completed a total of 12 or more academic units in any two terms of study between May and April and maintained a grade point average of 7.50/9.00 or higher on the best 12 units. The scholarship is automatically renewed for each year of the student’s full-time study until completion of a first degree or for a maximum of three years, whichever is the shorter period. A student whose grade point average falls below 7.50/9.00 may file a written appeal with the Senate Committee on Awards to seek special consideration for the renewal of the scholarship. Students registered in a co-op or work experience work-term will automatically be renewed when they next complete 12 or more academic units in two terms, provided they have a grade point average of 7.50/9.00 or higher in the two terms. Any student who takes neither a co-op, work experience work-term, or academic units for more than one term may forfeit the scholarship.
