Hi all graduate students in Health and undergraduate students in SHPM,

If you are interested in applying for the 2010-2011 Vanier CGS Doctoral 
Scholarship (which is co-administered by all Tri-Council Agencies - SSHRC, 
NSERC and CIHR), please note the followings. 

1.  Students wishing to apply for this particular doctoral scholarship 
MUST do so through the Canadian university to which they are applying for 
doctoral studies.  So if you do not intend to apply for any doctoral 
programs at York University for the academic year of 2010-2011, do not 
submit your application package to us.

2.  Otherwise, our program's internal program deadline is 4:00 PM on 
Tuesday, OCTOBER 12, 2009.   You will drop off a complete application in 
Room 409, HNES Building.   

3.  Late applications will not be accepted.    There is no exception. 

4.  Incomplete applications or applications which do not meet the minimum 
academic requirements will not be forwarded to the Faculty of Graduate 
Studies for short-listing.   They will not be returned to applicants 
either.   There is no exception. 

5.  The website of this particular Doctoral scholarship is 
http://vanier.gc.ca/prog-desc-eng.shtml .  You must complete an 
application online at this URL and then drop off a hardcopy of the 
complete application package, including supporting documents such as 
transcripts and references, in Room 409, HNES Building by the deadline. 

6.  ALL documents to be enclosed in the applicaton packages must be the 
original copies.   Photocopies will not be accepted.

7.  References and transcripts must be sealed in individually unbroken 
envelopes upon submission of the completion application packages.

8.  For students who have not completed any credit courses at York 
University upon the submission of their application packages, they do not 
need to include their York trancripts in the application packages.   It is 
because their York transcripts will not have any final grades listed.
 
8.  You are strongly recommended to attend the scholarship information 
sessions and workshops that are held in September 2009.    For the 
schedule, please go to
