McGill University no longer accepts endowments for awards which are restrictive in certain respects, such as race, religion, or sex. However, there are some such funds endowed in the past which are still available.
Students who complete in detail the application form for financial aid, obtainable from the Scholarships and Student Aid Office, will be considered automatically for any such funds administered by that office.
The following scholarships have been established by the McGill Alumnae Society and are awarded annually to distinguished women students by the appropriate Faculty Scholarships Committees.
Several bursaries, of which the following five are named to honour distinguished women scholars, are provided by the McGill Alumnae Society. The awards are made by the Scholarships and Student Aid Office to women students in financial need who have satisfactory academic standing.
