Scholarships, Bursaries, Awards and Financial Assistance  
Scholarships Go to top of document
Students need not apply for scholarships administered by the University unless otherwise indicated. Scholarships and awards are allocated at the discretion of the Senate Committee on Undergraduate Student Affairs. In order to ensure equitable distribution of funds, the Committee reserves the right to limit the cumulative monetary value of scholarships and awards that any one student may receive. Normally, to be eligible for awards other than an entrance scholarship, a student must be presently registered full-time at Brock and have successfully completed four or more credits in the previous Fall/Winter Session. Students with special needs, who are full-time but carrying fewer than four credits because of the impact of a disability, are also eligible for scholarships, as recommended by the Associate Vice-President (Student Services). Awards based on donations cannot be guaranteed by the University and can only be forwarded after the funds have been received from the donor. A student who withdraws from the University will have their scholarship pro-rated. Please note: An asterisk (*) appears beside the value of an endowed scholarship. The figure shown is the amount awarded last year. The value will vary from year to year depending upon income earned by the endowment.

Bursaries Go to top of document
Bursary funds are never adequate to provide full support or even a major part of support for students. Rather, bursaries are intended to assist students whose personal resources (including eligibility for loans) are normally adequate or nearly so, but whose immediate circumstances have created a financial crisis or limited shortage. All students who are eligible to do so, are expected to have applied for assistance under the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) and to have accepted all loans granted under that program. Acceptance of a bursary implies the commitment of the recipient to complete the current academic year. A student who withdraws from the University will have their bursary pro-rated. Please note: An asterisk (*) appears beside the value of an endowed bursary. The figure shown is the amount awarded last year. The value will vary from year to year depending upon the income earned by the endowment. Bursaries are granted for the current academic year and applications may be submitted at anytime during the term. To be considered for some donor bursaries, applications must be submitted by October 15 except where otherwise noted. Bursary applications are available on the Student Awards and Financial Aid website at http://www.brocku.ca/studentawards/.
