Entrance Scholarship renewable?
I have a 91.33% average which puts me up for the $1000 range. Is this a one-time only scholar ship? Or is it renewable for every term?

You can still apply for other scholarships though, ie) aim for the deans list

Deans List is not a scholarship (no monetary value).

But you get scholarship if grade is dean-list-able.

Not automatically you don't, no. If you only have dean's list grades you don't get any scholarships for just that in itself, you have to apply for them and be selected etc. At best, Dean's list only gives you eligibility in some scholarships.

I got Dean's List every year but there was never any money associated with it, and I never got a scholarship because of my CA. There are a bajillion people on the Dean's List, it's not even that big of an accomplishment.

You get on the Dean's Honours List if you have a sessional average of 9.5 or above. It's kind of like gettings honours in high school or the Ontario Scholar thing. It really doesn't mean much other than getting to put it on your resume, I don't think.

Yup, and it's also on your transcript. You can put it on your LinkedIn account as well under the Awards and Scholarships section if you use it.
