Apply

Who can apply

Alberta grads entering a Faculty of Education, with no parent holding a university degree

Worth knowing

Open August 1 to October 31 each year. You submit the form to Alberta Student Aid, and the money is released once they confirm you are enrolled full time in a Faculty of Education.

About this scholarship

One award of $1,500 from the Alberta Heritage Scholarship Fund for a student graduating from an Alberta high school this year and heading into a Faculty of Education full time at an Alberta public post-secondary. The catch that rules most people out, and lets others in: neither of your parents can hold a university degree. You also have to be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident or protected person, and an Alberta resident. Visa students are not eligible.

Email me before it closes

We send one link to confirm, then a reminder 30, 14 and 3 days before the deadline.
We store your address only to send these reminders, and delete it the moment you unsubscribe. How this works.
