Reminder to UMGF and MGS holders”

“General Regulations

To hold an award, you must:

• Apply for National Scholarships for which you are eligible, at every possible competition. Some of

these National Awards are NSERC (Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council), SSHRC

(Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council), CIHR (formerly MRC – Medical Research

Council and NHRDP – National Health Research Development Program) or any similar national

agency. MHRC (Manitoba Health Research Council) is another agency to which eligible students

must apply. If UMGF recipients who are eligible for a National Award do not apply, the University of

Manitoba Graduate Fellowship shall not be renewed unless there are special circumstances and for

which a compelling case is made and then approved by the Dean of the Faculty of Graduate Studies.”
