Scholarships

UNB Scholarships & Bursaries for Part-time Students: If you are a part-time student, in 3 or fewer courses per term, you may qualify for a bursary (based on financial need) or scholarship for part-time students. Eligible applicants must not have been full time in the last 12 months. Applications are available online at www.unb.ca/scholarships/parttime.html or outside office G15 in Oland Hall.

External Scholarships: There are numerous scholarships and bursaries offered by different organizations and businesses (that are external to anything UNB offers). These require separate applications and have various deadlines. For a listing of external scholarships and awards, visit www.unb.ca/scholarships/external.htm

Special Announcements

Money Matters Website: UNB’s Money Matters website has had a make-over! Visit www.unb.ca and click on “Money Matters.” Here, you will find up-to-date information on all things related to money, including everything from tuition and housing costs to scholarship and student loan information.

Are you receiving New Brunswick Student Loans? If so, your Confirmation of Earnings Form is due by November 15, 2009. Please note that if this form is not sent, you WILL NOT receive your loan funding in January. Forms can be downloaded at www.studentaid.gnb.ca.

Are you receiving a loan from another Province? If so, you may be required to submit proof of summer employment before your January loan will be released. In Nova Scotia, for example, a Pre-Study Report is required and, in Newfoundland, an Income Confirmation Form is required. Other provinces also require similar forms. Therefore, it is imperative that you check with your provincial student aid office to find out if such a form is necessary.
