Don't forget to complete the "2018-19 O.S.S. Grad Profile (Awards & Scholarships)" which has been emailed to potential graduates' school email accounts.  In order to be considered for internal (OSS) and some local scholarships, you must complete the Grad Profile!  If you are a potential graduate and you have NOT received a link to the Grad Profile, please let Ms. Stanley or Mrs. Hollinger know.

Scholarship applications do begin early in the fall and continue throughout the school year.  For many scholarships, school sponsorship or a school nomination is required; in many cases, a school can only nominate or sponsor a single student.  It is very important that you speak with Ms. Stanley before you proceed with one of these applications so that you can follow our school's selection process and policy. 

 

Students are required to submit a condensed application to the OSS Selection Committee; forms are available in the Guidance office and the deadline to hand them in will pre-date the actual scholarship deadline so that there is time for a decision to be made and your official application prepared.

Scholarships that we are currently considering are the Loran (see poster below), the University of Toronto Book Award & National Scholarship, as well as the Queen's Chancellor's award.
