About this award

You can receive $2,000 from this award. There are 3 awards available in total. As a scholarship, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are admitted to the University of Regina as an Adult Learner for the upcoming Fall term. There is no separate application: all undergraduate students who apply for Fall admission are considered for this award automatically, based on their admission. Selection criteria aren't published — ask University of Regina how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask University of Regina 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 University of Regina whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
