In an effort to support students interested in applying for this award through the University of Manitoba, and to help units/departments identify competitive applicants, the Faculty of Graduate Studies has prepared an information packagehttp://umanitoba.ca/graduate_studies/htmlmail/Vanier%20Canada%20Graduate%20Scholarship%20information%20package%20final.pdf (http://bit.ly/2q9juVr). This document includes information on timelines, eligibility, application procedures, and selection criteria.
