York University in Canada is giving a scholarship called the Glendon International Excellence Scholarship for the academic session 2023/2024. This scholarship is for international undergraduate students who are doing well in their studies.
About 10 students will get $10,000 each for the 2023/2024 school year. This money will go towards their first year in a Glendon program. Students can renew the scholarship each year for up to 4 years if they study full-time.

- Your eligibility will be decided based on a recommendation letter from a high school teacher or counsellor, a complete application with a 300-word statement explaining your leadership qualities and how you’ll contribute to Glendon.
