Scholarships

Go to top of document

Students need not apply for scholarships administered by the University unless otherwise indicated. Scholarships and awards are allocated at the discretion of the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Student Affairs. In order to ensure equitable distribution of funds, the Committee reserves the right to limit the cumulative monetary value of scholarships and awards that any one student may receive.

Normally, to be eligible for awards other than an entrance scholarship, a student must be presently registered full-time at Brock and have successfully completed four or more credits in the previous Fall/Winter Session. Students with special needs, who are full-time but carrying fewer than four credits because of the impact of a disability, are also eligible for scholarships, as recommended by the Vice-Provost, and Associate Vice-President Student Services. Awards based on donations cannot be guaranteed by the University and can only be forwarded after the funds have been received from the donor. A student who withdraws from the University will have their scholarship pro-rated.

By accepting any award at Brock University, the recipient automatically releases their permission to use their name/likeness, as well as, program and year of study for release by the University and any other third parties approved by the University. Thank you letters received from students are forwarded to the donor of the award.

Please note: An asterisk (*) appears beside the value of an endowed scholarship. The figure shown is a past award amount. The value will vary from year-to-year depending upon income earned by the endowment.

Bursaries

Go to top of document

Bursary funds are never adequate to provide full support or even a major part of support for students. Rather, bursaries are intended to assist students whose personal resources (including eligibility for loans) are normally adequate or nearly so, but whose immediate circumstances have created a financial crisis or limited shortage. All students who are eligible to do so, are expected to have applied for assistance under the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) and to have accepted all loans granted under that program. Acceptance of a bursary implies the commitment of the recipient to complete the current academic year. A student who withdraws from the University will have their bursary pro-rated.

Please note: An asterisk (*) appears beside the value of an endowed bursary. The figure shown is the amount awarded last year. The value will vary from year-to-year depending upon the income earned by the endowment.

Bursaries are granted for the current academic year and applications may be submitted at anytime during the term. To be considered for some donor bursaries, applications must be submitted by October 15 except where otherwise noted.

Bursary applications are available on the Student Awards and Financial Aid website at brocku.ca/studentawards/

Dr. Andrea Toepell Memorial Award

Award Type: In-Course Scholarship - Application Required

Value: $1000*. Awarded annually to a student entering the Bachelor of Public Health program that has demonstrated academic achievement. The successful recipient must also demonstrate financial need and meet Ontario residency requirements.

This award honours the life of Dr. Andrea Toepell. In the summer of 2004, the Department of Community Health Sciences and the Brock community lost a valued colleague and a dear friend. Professor Andrea Reisch Toepell died of cancer on July 9. For those who knew her, Andrea's constant kindness, pervasive optimism and unrelenting enthusiasm for life will always serve as a source of hope and inspiration. Dr. Andrea Toepell was hired by Brock University in July 1995 as the first probationary appointment in the Department of Community Health Sciences (formerly Health Studies).

Her research in the area of heart health, women's health and HIV/AIDS had a particularly important impact on the Niagara and Hamilton-Wentworth community. Her policy research area of safe sex, HIV/AIDS education, women's health and correctional protocols were an important contribution to the health profession. Teaching was a most valued part of her professional career. Andrea's commitment to her students within the classroom spilled into professional development and educational leadership. Despite deteriorating health issues, Andrea maintained her scholarship profile, and one year before her death she earned promotion and tenure. Andrea's passion for life extended into every venue, and in a pattern familiar to female academics, she successfully balanced all of the demands of motherhood, family, and academic success. Andrea's colleagues at Brock remember her with affection and respect; she was a colleague who exemplified a gracious and generous spirit.

In a context where 'high impact' is far too often used as a measure of publication excellence alone, Dr. Andrea Toepell's legacy was truly one of 'high impact', who excelled in the quality of human relationships as they extended both within and outside her academic community.
