Evaluation process
All applications received will be assessed for eligibility by the FRQSC before being submitted to the evaluation committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the evaluation committee has the right to declare an application ineligible if it considers that it does not meet program requirements.
Applications are evaluated by multidisciplinary peer committees recruited within and outside of Québec. The evaluation committee analyzes all applications received on a comparative basis using the evaluation criteria in force. It also recommends the funding period based on the proposed time frame and the objectives of the internship. Consequently, the recommended length of the internship may differ from that indicated in the application.
The evaluation committee makes recommendations for each application received. The number of recommended applications that receive funding will depend on the availability of FRQSC funding for the program.

RULES GOVERNING STACKING OF SCHOLARSHIPS
In addition to the rules governing stacking described in section 3.6 of the Scholarship Holder's Guide, BSMP recipients are not eligible for the Soutien aux cotutelles Québec-France program or other Government of Québec mobility programs during the same period.
