Deadlines for this scholarship
An award closing is only the first of the dates that matter. After it there is the deposit that keeps your place, the unconditional offer the funder wants to see before it pays, and a last day to arrive and register. Where the funder publishes none of these, the row says so — a blank is what the official page actually says, not something we have left out.
No closing date published. This funder sets its closing date per country, or opens the call only when the cycle begins. Send us your documents and we will apply the moment your country’s window opens.
Who can apply
NOT eligible for our students - limited to citizens of ASEAN Member States, Pacific Island Countries and Mongolia; Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and the Gulf are not on the list.
What the award is
Global Affairs Canada short-term study and research scholarships (4-8 months) at a Canadian post-secondary institution, an expansion of the Canada-ASEAN SEED program under the Indo-Pacific Strategy. Eligibility is limited to students from ASEAN member states, Pacific Island countries and Mongolia - South Asian applicants are not covered - and it is the Canadian institution that submits the application on the candidate's behalf, not the student. The page shows the 2026-2027 call as closed with an institutional deadline of 24 March 2026, so students should watch EduCanada for the next call.

EduCanada's SEED-2 page (Global Affairs Canada) shows the 2026-27 application period as closed - institutional applications were due 24 March 2026 - and publishes no 2027-28 window, so all columns are blank; the 1 February 2027 latest-arrival date belongs to the closed 2026-27 round — https://www.educanada.ca/scholarships-bourses/can/institutions/seed-bpeed.aspx?lang=eng (checked 30 October 2026). Canadian host institutions apply on behalf of candidates.
