Student Exceptional Expense Bursary (non-repayable funding)
This bursary was designed to assist students who due to an "exceptional expense" are no longer able to balance their school term budgets.
Students must complete an application form and provide a written explanation of the exceptional expense incurred, the steps taken to resolve the financial issue, and exactly what the monies requested will be used for.
The Student Exceptional Expense Bursary is available to all full-time postsecondary students who demonstrate an unmet financial need due to an exceptional expense. Students may apply for assistance at any time during the semester through the Student Financial Assistance Office. All applications are reviewed by the Committee. Normally the maximum allowable does not exceed $500 per semester per person. These funds are issued at the discretion of the Committee with the final approval of the President's Executive Committee.
