Canadian Commonwealth Scholarship Program, Canada

The Government of Canada offers scholarships as part of the Commonwealth Scholarship Plan (CSP). These scholarships are tenable at recognized public Canadian institutions and affiliated research institutes only.
The Canadian Commonwealth Scholarship Program (CCSP) is designed to provide opportunities for students of other Commonwealth countries to pursue research and studies in Canada.
The Scholarships are intended for men and women of high intellectual promise who may be expected to make a significant contribution to their own countries on their return from study in Canada.
The Canadian Commonwealth Scholarship Program is funded by Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada (DFAIT) which also determines the number of scholarships available each year. The agency responsible for financial and administrative matters is the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE).
Awards available under this program include:
- Graduate Students' Exchange Program (GSEP) Awards available to citizens enrolled full-time in selected countries for research in Canada (including the Canada-Caribbean Community Leadership Scholarships)
- College and Undergraduate Students' Exchange Program (CUSEP) Available to citizens enrolled full-time in selected countries for study in Canada (including the Canada-Caribbean Community Leadership Scholarships)
