Worth knowing
This is the award for Peace-country students from outside the city, and commuting counts as well as moving. Note the specific mark rule: English 30 plus four other 30-level courses, not an overall average. Northwestern Polytechnic's standard award criteria require two full semesters already completed at NWP, which shuts most of its 359 awards to a student coming straight out of grade 12. Entrance awards are the exception and this is one of them. Applications sit in your NWP account document library once you are admitted.
About this scholarship
One award of $1,000 for a new full-time student entering directly from high school with an average of 80 per cent across English 30 and four other 30-level courses, whose hometown is at least 100 kilometres from Grande Prairie and who either relocates or commutes regularly to attend.
