Scholarships and Awards

From FEAS-specific awards to TMU-wide scholarships there are hundreds of awards being updated regularly on the AwardSpring site.

How AwardSpring works:

  1. Sign into AwardSpring (external link) .
    All of your information (financial, program/discipline etc.) is pulled from your MyTMU profile automatically. This personalized experience means AwardSpring will display all of the awards you are specifically eligible for.
  2. Make sure you fill out the self declaration form.
    This form includes information not available on MyTMU and informs AwardSpring that you may also be eligible for awards specific to your identity and circumstance (i.e. awards supporting equity-deserving groups etc.)
  3. Check AwardSpring often.
    Only the awards that are currently open are displayed on AwardSpring at any time. Although we aim to provide reminders, checking AwardSpring regularly means you reduce the risk of missing awards available to you.
  4. Explore external awards below.
    Yes, there are awards you may be eligible for from industry partners and from the faculty that are not rewarded through AwardSpring. See those external awards below, and check back here regularly for updates.
