Awards, Bursaries and Scholarships

We want to thank our amazing donors for their generous contributions to our awards, bursaries and scholarships, and for helping students realize their goals. Thanks to this support, Algonquin College is able to give out over $7M each year in awards, bursaries and scholarships.

We’ve created this new database to make it easier than ever to see the different funding options available to our students and to recognize our amazing donors. We all want to help you on your academic journey in any way we can.

How is a bursary different from a scholarship, award, or loan?

A bursary is awarded based on financial need, whereas a scholarship is generally awarded for academic achievement. Awards are issued based on academic achievement, extracurricular activities, or other activities like volunteerism and leadership. Awards can take various forms, including a sum of money, a medal, a plaque, books, tools, or memberships. These types of awards are listed below as Merit-based. Unlike loans, funds that are given as a bursary, award, or scholarship do not need to be paid back.

Bursary Application

Each term in the academic year, we open up our bursary portal for students to apply for additional funding. We use an almost all-in-one portal to help students apply. If you are unsure how to apply for a bursary, visit our How to Apply for Bursaries page to learn more. In order to be considered for many of the awards below you MUST fill out a bursary application when it’s open, so don’t snooze on this!

  • The Fall bursary application period is generally open from late August to late September.
  • The Winter bursary window is usually late December to mid-January.
  • The spring bursary application window will usually be late April to mid-May.

If you are looking for specific dates, you can check the Academic Calendar or the How to Apply for Bursaries page. In fact, you should really bookmark both of those; they are extremely handy.

Separate Application Required

In some rare cases, awards require an external or separate application. These are listed below and are marked with a “Yes” under ‘Application Required’? Usually, there are additional requirements specific to the award. Make sure you meet the criteria and submit your application before the deadline.

Important Note: If a specific application form is not available, you MUST apply for a bursary through the centralized bursary application to be considered. Please visit How to Apply for a Bursary for details.
