Mackenzie King Memorial Scholarships

Candidates are required to submit their applications by the deadline directly to the Canadian university from which they have received (or will receive) their most recent degree (designated their "home" university). Supporting documentation is also to be sent to the same location.
Any applications sent to the UBC office will be forwarded to the home university and as a consequence may miss the deadline.

Nominations for the Travelling Scholarship are restricted to postgraduate study in the United States and the United Kingdom of international relations or industrial relations. Where there is doubt as to whether the program of study meets the criteria, the nomination should be submitted and the Board of Scholarship Trustees will make the final determination of eligibility.

Application package:

• The completed and signed application form (including attached sheets A and B as described on that form).
• Three letters of reference from persons who have an intimate knowledge of your record and ability and are able to give a critical evaluation of your plans for graduate study. At least two of these testimonials must be from persons under whom you have taken your major work at university, or from senior colleagues with whom you have been associated in academic teaching or research.
• Official transcripts of marks and other academic records from each university you have attended. If a transcript is not available, you may substitute a certified statement by the Registrar or the Faculty concerned.
