Who can apply

Students with special needs facing extra costs at Red Deer Polytechnic

Worth knowing

Red Deer Polytechnic runs one General Application that closes May 31 and puts you in the running for every award you qualify for, so this is one box on a form rather than a separate submission. The award is written around the additional cost of attending rather than around the disability itself, so the case to make is a practical one about what your education actually costs you.

About this scholarship

A $1,500 bursary for a recent high school graduate entering Red Deer Polytechnic full time who, because of special needs, has to carry extra expenses to attend.

Email me before it closes

We send one link to confirm, then a reminder 30, 14 and 3 days before the deadline.
We store your address only to send these reminders, and delete it the moment you unsubscribe. How this works.
