Prizes are awarded based on your performance, are not normally applied for, and are of less value than scholarships. Scholarships, on the other hand, must be applied for at the start of the academic year, and are typically of higher financial value than prizes.

SCHOLARSHIPS
Scholarships must be applied for by the first week of May each academic year. These are usually only open to students already in the University. Some are open to students majoring in all disciplines, while students taking a double major where Accounting or Management is the second major will find even more scholarships available.
Postgraduate students can also apply for any available scholarships through the School for Graduate Studies and Research.
