We encourage students who are pursuing post-secondary education to apply for scholarships to help reduce the costs of their post-secondary education. There are countless scholarships available to our students and we want help students find these scholarships and support them in applying for them. One way to find scholarships is to sign up to www.scholarshipscanada.com and receive free information and alerts about nation-wide scholarships that students qualify for. To keep organized and never miss a deadline, download our Scholarship Tracking Sheet. Also students may qualify for other sources of funding, such as Frog Lake Post-Secondary and/or the Freehorse Family Wellness Society. Also don't forget to make an appointment with our Career Counsellor, to discuss all of the funding options available to you.

Student Loans & Grants
Student loans are different than scholarships and bursaries. The money received from a student loan needs to be repaid after you complete your post-secondary program and after a 6 month grace period. Visit the Student Aid Alberta website to complete the online application and you will be assessed for both Alberta Student Loans and Canada Student Loans, as well as provincial and national grants.
