Email me when the date is posted

We send one link to confirm, then an email when a confirmed deadline is posted and reminders before it closes.
Reminders come from ScholarAB in Medicine Hat, Alberta. We store your address only to send them, and delete it the moment you unsubscribe, which you can do any time from any email.
What we keep

Nothing else is sent until you press the button in the confirmation email. If you never do, the address is deleted within 30 days. Otherwise it goes 60 days after the deadline or the moment you unsubscribe, whichever comes first. A listing with no date keeps it a year at most, and nothing is kept past 18 months. We never sell or trade it. Questions go to hello@scholarab.ca. The full privacy policy.

Worth knowing

Established by the Stampede City Progress Club for Bill Gibson, its longest serving member. You must go straight from Grade 12 into first year. A gap year disqualifies you, and the program has to be a full-time undergraduate degree at a Calgary institution. Selection weighs leadership in Calgary communities alongside financial need. The value has moved between cycles, listed at $10,000 in an earlier year and at $7,500 renewable for up to three further consecutive years on the most recent Calgary Board of Education listing, so confirm the figure with the Calgary Foundation. You must go directly from high school into a full-time undergraduate degree at a Calgary post-secondary institution.

About this scholarship

$7,500 for a Grade 12 student graduating from a Calgary public or Catholic school and entering first year of a full-time undergraduate degree at a Calgary post-secondary institution, renewable for up to three further consecutive years, for four years in total.
