Awards Scholarships and Bursaries

You need to think about both internal through Lakeland College and external (all the other) awards and scholarships that may be available to you.

Lakeland offers awards, scholarships and bursaries. Learn the difference between the three types of free money by visiting our Searchable Listing in the links below.

Also, don't forget to check out possible awards offered outside of Lakeland. We list some of those possibilities in our External Awards page, but this is just a sample. We also suggest:

  • Checking around your community for other possibilities.
  • Organizations that you, your parents or even your grandparents belong to may also have a scholarship or bursary.
  • Does the company you or your parents work for offer scholarship?
  • Checking out organizations related to your program of study, they may have an award.
  • Checking national listings (some of which are included on our external awards page) for scholarship listings.
Academic Excellence Scholarship

Lakeland's Academic Excellence Scholarship is based on your grade 11 marks. If your average is 85% or over, you could be eligible for this scholarship. 

University transfer, business, environmental sciences and interior design program applicants are all eligible.

Application and nomination forms
Application and nomination forms are on our forms page.
Award celebration

Lakeland recognizes both donors and award recipients. 

Banquets are held on each campus in March.

See more on our [awards celebrations page].

Awards, bursaries, and scholarships (searchable listings)

Check out our searchable awards, bursaries, and scholarships listings. It's an e-document with different sections:

  • the first section is an alphabetical listing of all Lakeland's awards, bursaries, and scholarships
  • the last section is a series of of 15 appendices divided by specific school as well as one for any school/program, one for multiple schools/programs and one that lists those that require an application
Bursaries

The primary qualifying criteria is financial need. Eligible students must maintain satisfactory academic standing. 

Bursary application forms will be made available by the Financial Aid and Awards Office mid-October each year. Deadline to apply is November 15. Bursaries are awarded in January upon confirmation of enrolment in semester 2 and are made payable to the recipients.

Entrance awards and scholarships

Criteria for selection includes academic excellence, leadership and involvement throughout high school. Accepted and provisionally accepted students will receive the Entrance Awards application form in early March. Deadline to apply is May 1. 

Final selection will be made by the awards office and recipients will be notified in June.  Funds will be awarded in October upon confirmation of full-time enrolment.

External awards

There are an abundance of awards and scholarships outside of the more than $1.5 million we give to students. 

Our external awards page has just some of the many places where you could get help with funding your education.
