About this award

$1,000 per year plus $5,000 in tutoring for Canadian students with learning disabilities starting a bachelor's or diploma program in 2026-2027.

You can receive $1,000 Canadian per year for up to four years, or until you earn your first bachelor's degree or college diploma. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. Additionally, you will receive mandatory virtual tutoring support valued at $5,000 Canadian over the course of four years. This is for you if you have a documented learning disability or gift and are pursuing a post-secondary education to reach your full potential. No deadline is posted publicly — before you start the application, check Scholarship Partners Canada (Universities Canada)'s program page or call their office to confirm when applications open and close this year. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Scholarship Partners Canada (Universities Canada) how winners are chosen and roughly how many of the twenty available scholarships are awarded each year so you can judge your odds. Ask Scholarship Partners Canada (Universities Canada) 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 — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Scholarship Partners Canada (Universities Canada) what you need to maintain to keep your funding.
