Over $400,000 in Regional Entrance Scholarships Awarded

To support KPU International's vision of diversity, we offered eligible students from key emerging markets an opportunity to receive a Regional Entrance Scholarship of up to $5000. The scholarship recognizes students demonstrating exceptional academic achievement and intellectual promise, and encourages more applicants from these emerging markets to choose KPU as a learning destination. 

"KPU has been giving me the courage to dream bigger and the resources I need to make those dreams come true. To anyone considering KPU, all I have to say is, there are no closed doors. All you have to bring is a big heart and an open mind."

$200,000 in KPU International Merit Scholarships Awarded

As part of KPU International's commitment to supporting international students' academic journey, we offered eligible students with impressive academic achievements an opportunity to receive a one-time Merit Scholarship of $5000. The scholarship is intended to celebrate the academic achievement of deserving students in attaining their educational goals, meeting their program objectives and succeeding to their fullest ability at Kwantlen Polytechnic University.

"I remember feeling nervous about my decision to return to school to polish my craft as a creative writer. That nervousness faded shortly after I started the program at KPU. Every member of the Creative Writing faculty I have met has been incredibly supportive and professional. Coming into the program with several years of experience as a working artist, I found that the knowledgeable authors on the faculty have done a fantastic job helping me fill in the gaps in my understanding of the literary scene. This support is especially valuable to me as an international student looking for opportunities in the North American market."

    Faculty of Health
    Fall 2026 Regional Entrance Scholarship Awarded

    "As a mature student returning to school to study in a different field, I am glad that I found an accelerated acupuncture program at KPU. Although this means covering a substantial amount of material in a shorter period of time, it also provides a more effective pathway towards starting a new career.

    My studies here can be challenging at times, but I find them truly rewarding. I cherish the opportunity to learn directly from industry experts and alongside peers who bring their own unique perspectives and experiences into the classroom. Being surrounded by people who share a common interest in health and wellness makes all the learning even more enriching.”

    Spring 2026 International Merit Scholarship Award 

    “KPU’s technical apparel program was exactly what I was looking for in my search to go back to school. Coming from a design background, I knew that I wanted a supportive and creative studio environment. The Wilson School of Design has been just that. Professors and students are engaged and eager to support each other. 

    The spaces are stocked with materials and equipment that encourage experimentation and making. There’s a nice balance between innovative thinking and looking towards the future of apparel design with practical hands-on work.”

    Fall 2026 Regional Entrance Scholarship Awarded 

    "One of the things I love most about KPU is its small class sizes. They make lectures feel more personal and easier to follow, and they have helped make the transition to university coursework much smoother. 

    As I work toward my associate degree in General Science, I have also enjoyed making friends on campus and finding my place in a new learning environment. These connections have been an important part of making university feel more familiar and welcoming."

    Andrew De Jesus

    Melville School of Business
    Spring 2026 International Merit Scholarship Award 

    “My experience in media and television production in the Philippines gave me a strong foundation, but I knew I wanted more.

    [My education] challenged me to think beyond borders, connect theory to real-world strategy, and grow not just as a professional but as a leader. Beyond the classroom, KPU gave me a community. Being part of KPU Pinoy and continuing my volunteer work with Filipino-Canadian organizations reminded me that education is most meaningful when it serves something greater than yourself.”

KPU offers scholarships to prospective and current students throughout the year. Interested to learn more about our scholarships? Contact us for more information!
