Graduate Bursary
Based on a new university initiative launched in the spring of 2023, an additional $500,000 per year is available to graduate students, on top of the more than $700,000 in existing bursary funding. In total, graduate students at Western have access to more than $1.2 million in bursary funding every year.
The Graduate Bursary offers domestic and international graduate students in financial need an opportunity to apply for bursary support using a single application.
