Financial Support

As one of Canada's leading research institutions, we place great importance on helping you finance your education. While at Western, you will want to devote your full energy to the successful completion of your studies, so every qualified student in Theory and Criticism will be provided with sufficient financial resources to complete their studies. 

Some funding is awarded to you upon entry into a program, some is based on recommendations from the program that is admitting you, and others you must apply for yourself, either to Western or to an external funding agency.
