​

Candidates for the scholarship must be recommended by their high school principal. The student is a graduate of a high school located in Brantford or Brant County and has demonstrated or indicated interest in scientific research and been accepted to a college or university that has an appropriate accredited curriculum and have signified their intentions of pursuing scientific technological careers.
