Edmonton Refugee and Emerging Communities Awards

EDMONTON · VERIFIED AUG 2026
WHO CAN APPLY
Greater Edmonton students from refugee and emerging immigrant communities
ABOUT THIS SCHOLARSHIP

Run by Africa Centre with Edmonton Community Foundation and National Bank, for students from communities where a significant number of members face barriers to education and employment. You must live in the greater Edmonton area and be heading to a program leading to a degree, diploma or certificate at a school in the region.

About 40 of these are given out a year against roughly 64 eligible applications, so the odds here are far better than most awards this size. You can win it twice, but no more. International students are not eligible.

HOW TO APPLY
1 Read the full requirements on the official website.
2 Prepare your documents and any references it asks for.
3 Submit through the official website before June 1, 2027.
AWARD VALUE
$1,000–$3,000
DEADLINE June 1, 2027
