There is a single application and selection process for the Canada Graduate Scholarships and the NSERC Postgraduate Scholarships.

Process:        
1. Open the NSERC website at www.nserc.ca
2. Enter the section for students, and read about the program
3. Create an account, and log in to fill out FORM 201. Follow the on-line instructions.
4. Make sure that you find two academic references that are familiar with your academic record and research potential. References have to be filled on-line. It is a good idea to inform your referees ahead of time, allowing them sufficient time to work on the references.

6. Submit your application on-line by the university deadline of October 27, 2010.  Only apply through UPEI if you are currently registered in a degree program at UPEI, or finished your degree sometime in 2010. 
7. If you are selected to have your application submitted to NSERC, you will be contacted to ensure that the application conforms to the NSERC guidelines.
