The Loran Scholars Foundation is preparing to launch our search for the 31st class of Loran Scholars, and we need the help of educators across Canada to identify students who demonstrate strength of character, dedication to serving others in the community, and the promise of leadership potential.
The individuals we seek possess integrity, courage, compassion, determination, as well as a high level of personal autonomy and self-motivation.
The Loran Award is the largest and most comprehensive merit-based award for young Canadians, valued at $100,000 over four years of undergraduate study. It includes study at one of our 25 partner universities, summer internships, mentorship, and participation in a community of supporters and alumni working towards a better country and world.
Here's how educators can support students:
- Register now for one of our educator webinars to learn how to best identify students who fit the Loran Scholar profile.
- Communicate this opportunity widely. Please take advantage of this communications toolkit containing ready-to-go promotional materials that you can share directly via your school's website, social media channels, digital screens, newsletters, etc.
- Contact students who demonstrate the Loran values and urge them to apply for the award, directing them to loranscholar.ca/becoming-a-scholar .
Important dates:
- The call for applications will open in the first week of September.
- The deadline for school sponsored applications is October 17th at 8:00pm ET. Each high school may sponsor up to three students. Each Cegep may sponsor up to eight students.
- Unsponsored students may submit direct pool applications before October 24th at 8:00pm ET.
