Deadline for nomination packages to be received at UBC is 31st January, 2013
The Donald A. Wehrung International Student Humanitarian Award (ISHA) recognizes outstanding international students from impoverished areas.
This award will be given to those who have achieved academic excellence under difficult circumstances and who would be unable to pursue post-secondary education without financial assistance. All candidates must be nominated for an ISHA award.
Eligibility requirements:
To be eligible, nominees must be international students entering university directly from secondary school and eligible to study in Canada on a Canadian study permit.
Although applicants to UBC can specify two program choices in their application for admission, an ISHA nomination will be considered only in relation to the nominee’s first choice program.
Nominees must also complete the online application for academic admission to UBC, and meet the UBC English Language Admission Requirement by January 31, 2013.
ISHA recognizes outstanding international students from impoverished or war-torn areas, who have achieved academic excellence under difficult circumstances and who would be unable to pursue post-secondary education without financial assistance.
