About this award

You can receive up to $1,000 from this bursary, and there are 2 awards available. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are a graduate of Belleisle Regional High School, especially if you are planning to enter a program in health and medicine. You must apply by May 30, 2027. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Winners are selected by Belleisle Regional High School. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Greater Saint John Community Foundation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Greater Saint John Community Foundation 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 Greater Saint John Community Foundation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be a graduate of Belleisle Regional High School. While other candidates will be considered, a preference will be given to graduates pursuing studies in the health field.

• SupportAvoid trying to apply entirely on your own. Instead, use the resources available at your school. Schedule a meeting with your guidance counsellor at Belleisle Regional High School to get help with the process.
• RealismAvoid assuming that being a health student guarantees a win. Instead, remember that while health students are preferred, the competition is limited to only 2 awards. Focus on making your personal essay stand out.
