The Carleton University Retirees’ Association (CURA) Undergraduate Entrance Scholarship builds on CURA’s long and proud history of supporting individual students as well as advancing our institution’s educational mission, and it encourages future leaders to begin their educational and professional journeys at Carleton.  Choosing the venue for one’s undergraduate education is a critical first step and this scholarship improves Carleton’s capacity to recruit future changemakers. The CURA Scholarship is open to all domestic students who are scholarship-eligible and who have received an offer of admission to a Carleton undergraduate program.

The CURA Undergraduate Entrance Scholarship is awarded annually to an outstanding domestic student entering a full-time degree program at Carleton University. All students commencing their undergraduate career at Carleton are eligible and an application is not required.  Carleton’s Admissions and Awards Offices are responsible for awarding the Scholarship to attract the highest calibre undergraduate students to Carleton.

This Scholarship will assist the qualified student at the onset of their academic and professional career. It will ease the financial burden incurred by many students and improve the likelihood of success in their inaugural year as well as enhance prospects for longer-term academic and professional success.
