Alberta scholarship deadlines, month by month

Every dated deadline ScholarAB tracks, in the order they arrive — scholarships and research programs together, because they land in the same semester and compete for the same weekends. September 2026 through July 2027. Dates come from each provider's own page and can move; the listing tells you the month it was last checked.

Awards with no fixed deadline

17 listings have no date to file under a month — they run until the money is gone, or the provider has never published one. They are worth a look early rather than late.

A further 106 research programs are rolling or have not announced next year's date yet. Those live on the programs directory, which shows each one's status as it changes.
