Project Hero Scholarship program

In recognition of the heroism and personal sacrifices of fallen Canadian Forces personnel, UOIT will waive tuition and residence fees for the dependents of the men and women killed while serving in an active military mission. The scholarships are part of Project Hero, an initiative aimed to help children of deceased Canadian soldiers obtain a post-secondary education free of financial constraints.

UOIT will provide the full amount of tuition for four years of an undergraduate degree and the first year of on-campus residence fees to eligible recipients. The Project Hero scholarship program at UOIT is effective from September 2009 to August 31, 2014. Individuals awarded the scholarship before August 31, 2014 will continue to benefit from their scholarship for the remainder of their four-year study period.
