nominate for entrance scholarships
Graduate Entrance Scholarships are run in goGRAD/Slate in tandem with the graduate admission cycle for the following reasons:
- most admission applicants cannot access the award system until about a month before their start term
- to reduce the amount of documentation
- to assist with funding plans; units will know the winners of large awards prior to internal award deadlines
Candidates invited after April 30 will be considered in the next year鈥檚 Entrance Scholarship competition.
To access Entrance Scholarships Information in goGRAD/Slate:
- Use the administrative side of Slate to run the at any time.
- In , programs can access an Entrance Scholarship workflow to view and nominate scholarship candidates.
This feature is only available in May.
