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.

About this scholarship
A $5,000 bursary for students from low-income families who qualify for full-time Alberta Student Aid and enrol in an approved high-demand program. Alberta expanded it for 2026-27 to 2,400 bursaries instead of 1,000, a $12 million budget, and more eligible programs in technology, health and energy. You do not apply separately, so get your student aid application in early.
