St. Clair College - Potential Students - Registrar's Office - Financial Aid & Awards

TUITION BURSARIES

All full-time post secondary students who are Canadian citizens or Landed Immigrants and who have a satisfactory academic standing (minimum GPA 2.0) are eligible to apply for a tuition bursary. Students must be in financial need in order to receive assistance. For administration purposes, the College defines financial need, as follows: "Where the total annual cost of attending College exceeds available income". The amount of the tuition bursary awarded varies based on the number of eligible applicants and the funds available. Only one tuition bursary may be awarded per academic year. Applications are available online or by contacting the Financial Aid Office.

What?

A Tuition Bursary is a gift of money from the College that is awarded once per academic year to a deserving student who shows a financial need. A T4A slip will be issued for income tax purposes. Due to the number of applications we receive and the limited amount of funds available for distribution, bursaries will be awarded based on the number of applicants who qualify.

Who may Apply?

Tuition bursaries are available to registered St. Clair College students who are full-time and are Canadian citizens or Landed Immigrants. You must also have a satisfactory academic standing (minimum GPA 2.0).

Please note that processing takes approximately four to eight weeks. Should you qualify to receive an award, a tuition bursary cheque will be mailed to you. Should you owe money to the College, the Tuition Bursary will be used to pay the debt.

Where to Apply?

Applications for the winter term are available beginning February 1, 2012 until 5pm on February 29, 2012. Apply online using the Tuition Bursary Application or in-person at the Financial Aid Office.
