Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards

The Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards program exists to recognize academic achievement and inspire students to pursue their educational goals while reducing the financial obstacles along the way.

• Scholarships

  Scholarships generally include an academic performance requirement and may be designated unrestricted or can be tailored to a specific School or Program depending on the donor’s interests.

  Donations can be added to an existing endowed scholarship in a particular area of interest or included in the general endowment fund. A named endowed scholarship can also be established with a minimum gift pledge of $5,000.00, which can be paid over multiple years. This is a great way to honour someone special and be recognized for years to come.

• Bursaries

  Your gift can also be directed towards establishing a bursary, which is available to students demonstrating a financial need or is facing a financial emergency. Support can be given on an annual basis and renewed each year or an endowed bursary can be established with a minimum gift pledge of $5,000.00, which can be paid over multiple years.

• Awards

  Awards recognize student academic excellence based on achievements from the previous year. Gifts would support our annual awards program and can be directed to a specific School or area of study. Donations can be pledged over a number of years to establish a named award for the duration of funding provided. The annual pledge payment would provide for the award and we will work with you to define the award criteria.
