Canadore College has a large, diversified financial assistance program. The program is designed not only to reward academic excellence and achievement, but to assist students who are in financial need.
Scholarships: These are awarded based on a combination of academic excelled, attendance and overall contribution to the classroom. In many cases, recipients are chosen by the program coordinators, following the studentÕs completion of the first, third and fifth semesters. All students are eligible for consideration of these awards and no application is required.
Bursaries: These are awarded on the basis of financial need and satisfactory academic progress. To be considered for the academic year, eligible students must submit a detailed application, on-line.
There are also a number of scholarships and bursaries that do require the student to apply in writing. Follow the link to see if you are eligible to apply for other scholarships and bursaries established by generous donors for Canadore's students. Letters are to be submitted to the Financial Aid office.
Emergency Loans are available from the Financial Aid Office on a short-term basis only. These loans are distributed to students who are waiting for funding to come in, i.e. OSAP. All loans are fully repayable. Loan applications may be submitted at any time throughout the academic year. A $10.00 service charge applies.
Discretionary Assistance Bursary is available to students in need of one-time only emergency funding. Applications may be requested in the Financial Aid Office.
