Bursaries & Grants

Bursaries are another form of financial assistance available to post-secondary students. Bursaries are based primarily on an individual’s financial needs. 

Most bursary programs have a formal application process, which may include other selection criteria such as extracurricular activities, community involvement, and leadership. Bursaries are intended to supplement a student’s primary source of post-secondary education funding.

Aside from the bursaries offered within the college system, there are many available through non-profit organizations, corporations, and service clubs. Ask your parents to enquire about bursaries at their places of employment or at their social clubs.
