Yes, you can apply for both internal (university) and external scholarships at the same time. Universities generally encourage students to seek all available funding opportunities.

However, if you are awarded multiple scholarships, you may only be allowed to accept one - typically the one with the highest value. The specific rules depend on each scholarship's terms and conditions.

Always review each scholarship’s guidelines to understand any restrictions on accepting multiple awards. If you need help reviewing scholarship terms, your LeapScholar counsellor can assist.
