Nipissing University OGS Scholarship 2026 for International Students
Prestigious CAD 15,000 merit-based scholarship for international master’s and doctoral students at Nipissing University, Canada.
About This Scholarship
The Ontario Graduate Scholarship (OGS) at Nipissing University is a prestigious merit-based award designed to recognize academic excellence in graduate studies for both master’s and doctoral students. Supported jointly by the Ontario government and Nipissing University, the scholarship provides CAD 15,000 for one academic year to help offset the costs of tuition and living expenses in Canada. The program also includes the Queen Elizabeth II Graduate Scholarship in Science and Technology (QEII-GSST). Applicants must be high-achieving international students with a minimum A-average (80%) over their last two years of study. Because the scholarship is administered by the university, international students must coordinate their OGS application with their graduate program admission. Eligibility requires holding a valid Canadian study permit and enrolling in full-time studies. The scholarship can often be combined with other funding packages, providing a robust financial support system for outstanding international researchers.
