About this award

You can receive a $1,000 award. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a Business Administration student who is striving for excellence in your field while managing financial challenges. You must apply by September 30th each year. When you apply, ask RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) how and when you will hear back — whether by email, phone, or the student portal. The student award and financial aid office and the Business Administration faculty manage the selection process. To maximize the reach of the funding, a new student is selected to receive the award each year. Ask RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) how many students typically apply so you can judge your odds. Ask RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) during your application how the money will reach you — some awards pay students directly, others apply funds to tuition. Confirm this so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed. Because a new student is chosen every year, this is likely a one-time award, but you should confirm with RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) if you can apply again in future years.

Who qualifies

You must be a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident. You must be enrolled full-time in any year of the Business Administration program at RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) and have successfully completed at least one term. You also need to show that you are in good academic standing and have financial need.
