CONTINUING STUDENT AWARDS AND SCHOLARSHIPS
In addition to entrance scholarships, Douglas College students may also qualify for continuing student awards based on their performance throughout the academic year.
Douglas College International Education Award of Distinction
The Douglas College International Education Award of Distinction endowment fund was created in 1995 by Douglas College International (then Douglas College Centre for International Education). The purpose of the fund is to recognize and reward international students returning to Douglas College who have demonstrated excellence over time, having completed a minimum of 24 credit hours.
CONTINUING STUDENT INTERNATIONAL MOBILITY AWARD
Continuing international and domestic students may apply for additional funding to facilitate their participation in an approved international mobility program.
