Not all awards will apply to all students. To get a list customized to them and weekly email reminders of deadlines, they should create a profile on ScholarTree. Students can use the filter "Applications Open" only to see those scholarships currently accepting applications at the top left of their scholarship list.

One award worth highlighting is York University’s free tuition contest. Students going into first year can enter for a chance to win free tuition for 1 year. York University offers leading programs, groundbreaking research projects and offers endless career opportunities to right the future.  If any of your students are interested in going to York, tell them to apply to the contest here:
