HELPFUL HINTS FOR COMPLETING YOUR APPLICATION...

• If you need help, do not be afraid to ask.
  Feel free to contact Paddle Canada if you have any questions or concerns.  A university counselor, college advisor, your parents, or even another student may also be of service.

• Be sure to follow the instructions carefully.
  Make certain to complete all sections as incomplete sections will be awarded a value of zero.

• Proofread, proofread, and proofread again!
  Misspelling and grammar errors may reflect poorly on your application.  Have a friend or relative double-check your work.

• Make certain your application is received on time.
  Deadline for applications is midnight 30-September of the current academic year.  Incomplete or late packets will be rejected unless Paddle Canada is given prior notification. Therefore we strongly recommend that you:
  • Send your application by Express Post or Priority Courier to ensure that your application can be tracked.
  • Email us with the date and tracking number of your package as proof you have met the application deadline (in the event the package is lost and/or does not get delivered on time).

• Write a letter of thanks if you receive an award.
  Other than being the polite thing to do, if you are planning to apply for scholarships again in the future, a thank you letter for past scholarships goes a long way in impressing the scholarship committee.
