Who can apply
Worth knowing
Your program has to start within a year of applying, so a grade 12 student can apply on next year's acceptance. The essay is the whole application: 750 to 1,000 words naming a specific barrier immigrants face and proposing something concrete to fix it. Recent winners have been university students with running non-profits, so a strong idea matters more here than a strong transcript.
