Two awards, valued at up to $20,000 over eight academic terms, will be awarded annually to deserving undergraduate students entering Year One of full-time degree studies in any program in the Faculty of Arts (excluding Accounting and Financial Management). Selection will be based on a combination of academic excellence and financial need as determined by Waterloo. To be considered, students must complete the University of Waterloo Entrance Bursary application by April 15. Recipients will receive $2,500 per academic term for up to eight terms (1A-4B). Payments beyond Year One are dependent on maintaining a minimum overall average of 75% and full-time enrolment in the Faculty of Arts. This award is made possible by a donation from Janis Traquair (BA ’79) and Brian Traquair (BMath ’79).
