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

The Calgary Foundation page says applicants must be entering their final year of study, so it is filed as a post-secondary award. Note it in Grade 12 so you can come back to it. The academic requirement is 70% or a cumulative GPA of at least 2.7. Applicants must be Alberta residents, and preference goes to students from the Calgary area.

About this scholarship

One award of about $2,500 with smaller awards possible, from the Optimist Club of Calgary. It is not an entrance award. You must already be enrolled at a Canadian post-secondary institution and entering the final year of your first certificate, degree or diploma. Preference goes to students from the Calgary area.
