Success in university means good grades most of the time. However, schools are recognizing that grades are just one part of the equation. There’s so many other aspects like community involvement and extracurricular that determines your success.

So to help you out, here are a few awards that don’t just require high grades. Some of these may require separate applications which can be done on MyCampus through the SAFA/Financial Aid tab.
