The Canadian Centennial Scholarship Fund (CCSF) award competition opens on 9 January 2023.  Submissions are invited from Canadian students who are already pursuing full-time, multi-year postgraduate programmes in any field of study in the United Kingdom. Awards (typically £5,000) include The Belle Shankman award for the Study of Arts and The Mary LeMessurier Award for the Study of History. The Maple Leaf Trust is the main sponsor.

Since it was founded in 1967, the CCSF has awarded more than £1 million to over 500 talented Canadians studying across multiple disciplines from music, creative art and design to science (including health research and computing science), engineering, social science and the humanities.
