Staff and faculty are encouraged to share the following scholarship opportunities with students and to consider students to nominate. *John J. Sark Memorial Scholarship The scholarship program was established in the name of distinguished Mi'kmaq Islander John James Sark in September 2009. He earned a post-secondary education at St. Dunstan's University, and was the Island's first Mi'kmaq teacher. It will be awarded to aboriginal students who have made a contribution to their First Nations, Inuit or Metis community, have commitment to their field of study, a strong academic performance and financial need.

It is well recognized that healthy living can lead to better health. Yet, MBA students also recognize that maintaining a successful healthy living strategy is never easy - let alone doing so while managing the added demands of an MBA program. It will be awarded to a student entering the second year of the Master of Business Administration Program at UPEI who has made an extra effort to maintain and promote balanced healthy living, and who, in the process, sets an example of community leadership.
