Selection Process
- Financial Need - While Applicants will not be subjected to an extensive means test, it is intended that loans and awards be provided to those with a real financial need. The amount of assistance will be based on the difference between resources that are available to the student and the allowable costs for tuition and living expenses.
- Preferred Applicants - Students currently enrolled in a post-secondary institution and receiving assistance are given preference over new applications where they continue to meet all other criteria.
- Preferred Programs - The following are considered to be the preferred academic programs for students applying for assistance:
- Agricultural and Environmental Sciences
- Animal Sciences
- Nursing & Related Sciences
- Teaching
Each academic program is, however, considered on its own merits; it is appreciated that general arts and science programs may be necessary preparation for more graduate level studies. - Academic Achievement - In addition to academic criteria that students must meet to be eligible to qualify for funding, a clear demonstration of commitment to academic achievement will be important.
- Other Achievements - On the initial application form, there is an opportunity to list other achievements which might improve the chances to be considered for receiving a loan. These might include Volunteer work over and above requirements for secondary school diploma, Involvement in community oriented organizations, or development of a project resulting in a benefit to the school or community.
