Finding Scholarships at Canada’s Top Undergrad

Mount Allison University offers a generous and competitive scholarship and bursary program. With more than $2.6 million in scholarships, bursaries, and financial aid awarded this year, it is an ideal way to help offset the cost of your post-secondary studies.

In 2012-13, approximately 67 per cent of our entering class received an entrance award and many benefitted from in-term, need-based financial aid bursaries.

Mount Allison's scholarship and bursary program is separate from our admissions process and requires the submission of a unique application for many awards. If you have an 80 per cent admissions average or above, you are guaranteed a minimum $2,000 ($500/year) scholarship. You can then apply to enhance your scholarship all in one comprehensive application form available at mta.ca/scholarships.

Mount Allison offers one of the largest undergraduate awards in Canada, the Marjorie Young Bell Scholarship — six Bell Scholarships valued at $48,000 ($12,000 per year) and five Bell Achievement Awards valued at $36,000 ($9,000 per year.) These are awarded to outstanding high school graduates who demonstrate strong academic ability, leadership capability, volunteer work, extracurricular activities, work experience, and good citizenship.

The entrance scholarship and bursary deadline is March 1, 2014. If you submit your scholarship application with all the required documents (early) by Feb. 14, you will be entered to win a sweet Mount Allison prize package in our Valentine’s Day Scholarship Contest.
