| Get away to the U of A! 20 Grade 11 students will be selected to see the University of Alberta like never before by attending the U of A Getaway from May 27 - 29, 2022. Attendees will join us in Alberta’s capital city, Edmonton, for an adventure that will include transportation reimbursement (up to a maximum based on location), accommodations, meals, and a jam-packed schedule of events! Applications are open until January 28, 2022. Students can learn more and apply at uab.ca/getaway. Please utilize our toolkit to share this experience on your own channels. Apply for scholarships like a pro! Scholarships are a great way to ease some of the financial stress that can come with pursuing post-secondary education. On December 16, students can attend our Scholarships 101 session to hear from an advisor about how to write a strong scholarship application. Registration is required and available at uab.ca/recruitmentevents. |

New Awards
Applications
for the Discover University of Alberta Award
and the Turtle Spirit Pathway Award for First Nations, Métis,
and Inuit Students are now open until February 15, 2022. The
awards are available to incoming students to the U of A. Students who have
demonstrated financial challenges and barriers to attending university will
be considered for up to $8,000 per year in award funding. Funding for the
awards will be renewable for four to five years.
New
applications have been created for both awards that will be separate from
the entrance scholarship application. We have created images for each award to be used on
your digital screens to help promote these opportunities.
Entrance scholarship applications close soon!
Our
application-based entrance scholarship competition closes on January 12,
2022. Please note, a campus computing ID (CCID) is required in order to
apply for entrance scholarships. In order to receive a CCID in time to work
on a scholarship application over the winter closure, the last safe day to
apply for admission is December 22, 2021. In general, it takes 2-3 business
days for a CCID to be generated. uab.ca/awards
