Every year, the University of Manitoba offers a wide-range of bursaries to both new and continuing full and part-time students who are enrolled in school from September to April who have a demonstrated financial need and a minimum academic standing. Bursaries - student funding which does not need to be repaid - range in amounts from $100 to $1,000, with over $3 million awarded annually. Eligibility
All students must complete courses in both Fall & Winter terms to be eligible (one term only students are not eligible for the bursary program)
Students must register for and complete a minimum of 6 credit hours per term (graduate students do not have to adhere to credit hour minimums but must be listed as a full time student with the Faculty of Graduate Studies)
Financial need must be clearly documented on the application. Students who have 2010-2011 government student loans must provide copies of their current “official” government loan assessment (no ‘quick assessments’) with their General Bursary applications. Copies must bear the students full name and study period. Manitoba students must submit a photocopy (DO NOT SUBMIT ORIGINALS) of your Notice of Assistance letter; page 1 and page 2.
We will not accept government assessment notices after October 1st.
Students must meet minimum G.P.A. requirements. For continuing students, you must have a minimum cumulative G.P.A. of 2.0. New students (from high school) must have a grade 12 average of 70%.
Applications must bear the applicant’s original signature (in ink) or will not be processed due to privacy protection laws
Results are finalized in mid-December of each year and money is applied to tuition fees for successful students. Please check your tuition account in Student Aurora in mid-December to find out if you have been awarded a bursary.
Special Bursaries There are bursaries available each autumn that are more program-specific than the standard "general" bursary application and we call these "special bursaries". These awards may require an additional application and will be posted at the same time as the Regular Session Bursary Program in late August visit http://umanitoba.ca/student/fin_awards/bursaries/1515.htm Please remember than many of these awards require more than one application so read carefully, we do not accept incomplete applications!
