VIU affords individuals with unlimited potential the unique opportunity to acquire an excellent, multi-disciplinary education. An important aspect of the VIU experience is the formal and informal exchange of information among scholars. By offering our student’s access to scholarships, VIU is able to attract rare individuals who will take these unparalleled experiences into their own cultures, share the knowledge with future generations and launch successful careers as world leaders while assisting them with their pursuit of Higher Education.

The Tuition Scholarship Program (TSP) funding is derived from a number of sources and is supported by generous contributions from individuals and organizations. The scholarship awards are based upon exemplary academic and personal accomplishment. Scholarship awards range from $500 to $4,000 annually.

Full-time, residential, undergraduate and graduate VIU students are eligible to apply for a scholarship if the scholarship requirements are met. Online degree students are not eligible for scholarships at this time. Eligibility and fulfillment of the scholarship criteria does not guarantee the award of a scholarship.

Scholarship awards are awarded as credits toward tuition only. The amount will be deducted from the total tuition fees charged for the academic year the scholarship is awarded.

A scholarship is an annual award that expires on its anniversary. Students who are awarded a scholarship must reapply each year if they want to be considered for the scholarship. There is no guarantee that the scholarship will be awarded on an annual basis.
