Scholarships, Awards & Aid

With more than 1,400 scholarships and bursaries, TMU offers almost $33 million in annual scholarship funding for incoming and current students. 

Register through the AwardSpring (external link)  platform to find scholarships and awards specific to you. 

Here’s how it 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.
