McCall MacBain Scholarship
The McCall MacBain Scholarships at McGill University are Canada’s first comprehensive, leadership-driven scholarships for master’s and professional degree studies (they are not intended for PhD programs). The scholarship program brings together a diverse group of scholars who aspire to lead with purpose – those who have demonstrated leadership potential and an inner drive to make a positive impact in other peoples’ lives. The scholarship covers tuition and fees for the full normal duration of the master’s or professional program, a living stipend of $2,000 CAD per month during academic terms, and a relocation grant for moving to Montréal.
