Making Education Affordable at Conestoga College

While post-secondary education is one of the best investments you can make, financing it can be a challenge. At Conestoga, we work hard to provide resources to assist students with financial need through a range of programs, including the Student Assistance Bursary and Conestoga Entrance Academic Grants as well as the Urgent Need Bursary for emergency funds.

If you’re applying for OSAP, the Financial Aid Team can assist with questions, applications and appeals and help those with unmet financial need through the Student Access Guarantee.

Thanks to the generous support of businesses and individuals across our community, hundreds of donor-funded awards, bursaries and scholarships are available to support Conestoga students in their efforts to achieve post-secondary education.

To be considered for these awards, simply complete our online General Application once each semester. Recipients are selected based on criteria such as program, academic achievement, community involvement and financial need.

Faculty and staff also nominate students who achieve academic and personal excellence for a variety of monetary awards and prizes(?) generously provided by Conestoga supporters, partners and friends.

Conestoga is committed to student success, providing assistance and resources to remove financial barriers, allowing students to focus on their academic endeavours instead of their financial situation.
