There are many universities around the world that offer special scholarships to students from underdeveloped and developing countries. The motive of the scholarships is to finance the study of students who cannot afford to pay such high tuition fees. Here is a list of scholarships in Canada, especially for African students.
TMU Postdoctoral Fellowships for Black Scholars
The scholarship recognises the barriers that black students have to face to pursue higher education. So, a number of black students are selected every year under the scholarship. A funding worth C$70,000 is granted to selected students in total.

This scholarship is offered by the Richard J. Van Loon Scholarship. It is awarded to one outstanding African student every year and the selected students granted C$5000.
