- ScholarshipsQueen's publishes no entrance scholarship specific to this programme, and Queen's graduate funding guarantee does not reach it: the guarantee is stated for full-time doctoral students, and for master's study Queen's says only that "The majority of Master's students in full-time non-professional programs also receive funding support (i.e., in year one for one-year programs, and in years one and two for two-year programs)". Applicants may still apply for the university-wide graduate awards - the Ontario Graduate Scholarship ("The current value of the award is $5,000 per term. Awards will be for two or three consecutive terms"; a small number are made to study-permit holders), the internal Queen's scholarships, fellowships and awards administered by the School of Graduate Studies and Postdoctoral Affairs ("These awards do not require an application, and many are part of funding packages given to students when they receive an admission offer."), SGSPA Conference Travel Awards, the need-based Queen's General Bursary, and the external sources Queen's lists for international students (Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships, Mitacs Globalink Research Awards and Globalink Graduate Fellowship, Government of Canada / Global Affairs Canada scholarships, the CALDO agreements and the China Scholarship Council agreement).
