Scholarships & Other Ways to Pay for your School

There are literally tens of thousands of scholarships available for grade 12 students planning to attend a trade school, college, or university.  However, students must be willing to invest time and energy to research, find and apply for these scholarships. Think of your scholarship “hunt” like applying for a part-time job.  It makes sense to use your connections, talk to your family and friends, and search the Internet!  The opportunities $$ are out there, you just have to find them!

There are 4 basic types of scholarships: International, National, Provincial, and Local.  The 1st type of scholarship typically includes those of the greatest dollar amount and are open to the greatest number of students, so competition for these dollars is tough! The dollar amounts typically decrease for each successive type of scholarship, and so does the number of potential applicants.  Use your time and energy wisely to apply for scholarships that you meet the criteria described on the scholarship application or website.

Scholarship Info for Grade 8, 9, 10 and 11

Thinking of going to college or university after grade 12? 
Need financial support to make that happen?

In General, the KEY is to Get Involved at school and in your community!

  • Most scholarships recognize a student who has excelled in a combination of academic, community and extra-curricular involvement or leadership.
  • Few awards are based solely on marks.
  • Emphasis is on recognizing well-rounded young people who balance school and life (team, club, community) involvement.
  • The more years a student has been involved and/or a leader, the more impactful the application.
  • Applications usually require at least one (and sometimes three or more) reference letter from an adult (teacher, coach, employer, club sponsor) who can attest to the student’s qualifications.  These references should be asked for well in advance of the application due date.
  • Many scholarships require the applicants to write some sort of personal essay (ex.  “describe one challenge you have faced in your life and how you have dealt with it”) or written answers to detailed questions (ex.  “why is education important to you?” or “what is your strongest leadership skill?”)

Where to Start:

Every student should keep track of his/her activities (teams, clubs, community groups, jobs, contest participation, recognition awards, skills, achievements, etc)
Participate, participate, participate!

 

  • Websites of post-secondary institution, specifically search: financial aid
  • Parents’/guardians’ places of work and/or unions
  • Student’s place of work and/or union
  • Clubs/community groups/teams/credit unions to which student or parents (or other family members) belong

Tips for Applying for Scholarships

TIPS FOR APPLYING FOR SCHOLARSHIPS

Scholarship application processes can differ depending on who is awarding it.  Ensure your application meets the requirements!

  1. DO YOUR RESEARCH – this takes a significant amount of time, but once you know where to look, sorting through the criteria becomes an easier next step.
  2. READ THE CRITERIA – skim the criteria for the award. If you think you remotely qualify keep the application information. If you don’t qualify at all – move one to the next one. Don’t waste your time.
  3. SORT THE AWARDS YOU QUALIFY FOR – Gather each of the scholarship applications that you think you qualify for. Read the small print. Some awards require you to meet 100% of the criteria. Sort your possible applications by how well you meet the criteria. Focus your time and effort on the applications that you feel you have the best chance at.
  4. MAKE A CALENDAR OF DEADLINES – Not all scholarships have the same application deadlines. Ensure your application will be received at least four days before the deadline. Note that since forms, questionnaires and supporting documents are normally required in an application, it may take at least one month to prepare your application. You are highly encouraged to plan ahead and start your scholarship application well in advance.
  5. GATHER REFERENCE LETTERS – Contact your references and supply them with details about the scholarships you are applying for. Ask that their reference letter addresses the scholarship criteria. Give your references advanced notice and plenty of time to customize their letters – 4-6 weeks.
  6. CREATE YOUR SCHOLARSHIP PORTFOLIO – Each scholarship application will ask for a variety of different documents (eg. resume, a personal statement, examples of your work, lists of volunteer or community achievements, or an essay on a particular topic). Create a portfolio and easily pull from it the documents your need to fit the application. Make sure you include each of the required documents.
  7. TRANSCRIPTS – Most applications will require a copy of your transcripts from either high school or the post-secondary institutions that you have or are attending. Ask whether you need original copies or not. Original transcripts take time to get – so plan ahead.
  8. PROOFREAD & PRESENTATION – Proofread your application carefully and ask someone else to proofread it too. Make sure your application looks professional, pay attention to the layout and incorporate white space, page numbers and headings. Make the application easy to reference and fast to read.
  9. TRACK YOUR APPLICATIONS – You may be sending a number of applications out and at different times. Keep a copy of all applications you send and track which applications went out on what days.  Be sure the applications arrive before the deadline. If you are using email or Canada Post request a receipt.

Reference Letter Hints, Tips & a Template

When requesting a reference letter from your teacher (s), please provide AMPLE NOTICE (minimum 2 weeks) and provide your teacher(s) with as much information as possible.

  • Consider using our reference letter planner (see below) to outline your activities/accomplishments.
  • THIS WILL BE VERY HELPFUL…in fact, some teachers will ask for the reference letter template.
  • Be specific about when you need the letter

Be polite when asking for a reference letter

  • Remember, teachers are not required to write you a reference letter.
  • Those who do are taking time out of their busy schedule to do this as a FAVOUR TO YOU
  • Be nice. Being demanding and pushy will do you no favours in getting a good reference from your teachers.

Be gracious even if a teacher turns you down.

  • Most teachers will write reference letters, but there are sometimes mitigating factors for some Teachers to decline:
  • Maybe they don’t know you well enough and do not have much to say about you. Teachers who know you and have lots to say about you are usually the best references!
  • Maybe they do not have many nice things to say about you (harsh, but sometimes this is true).
    • Don’t just ask any teacher to be your reference? Ask a teacher with whom you have a good relationship and can provide details about your work ethic, academics, etc. Teachers are asked to be honest in their reference letters and when people call for a reference check. You want to know that the teacher you ask to be your reference will have your back and go to bat for you!
  • Maybe you didn’t give your teacher enough notice.  Ask yourself: Do you really want a hastily written reference letter?

Plan ahead..and good luck!
“A lack of preparation on your part does not constitute an emergency on our part.”

Adapted: Sir Winston Churchill Secondary School School Counsellors

Reference Letter Planner

This form should be completed prior to requesting a reference letter. It can be done in point form. The information you provide in these 5 questions will be extremely helpful to the person who has agreed to compose a reference letter for you. It would be helpful to also provide them with a copy of your current transcript and a copy of the application form.

1. EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES. (List the extracurricular activities you have been involved in throughout high school. This includes your involvement in sports, music, clubs, leadership classes etc. Include the dates and years of involvement)

2. COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER WORK/INVOLVEMENT. (List and describe any community volunteer work or involvement. Include the dates and year(s) of involvement)

3. SPECIAL ACCOMPLISHMENTS. (List ALL certificates, awards, leadership roles etc. that you have earned both in the school and community.)

4. EMPLOYMENT HISTORY. (Outline your employment history. Provide dates of employment, names of companies and employers, tasks performed, etc.)

5. CHARACTER DESCRIPTORS. (Provide at least six words that best describe you. Explain why you think these words are the best descriptors of your character.)

>>>Lisa Huus Bursary

Each year the Huus Family, in partnership with Children’s Health Foundation of Vancouver Island (formerly Queen Alexandra Foundation for Children) and generous donors, award bursaries to support the education of students with disabilities.

The purpose of the fund is to provide bursaries, in the range of $500 – $5,000 annually per recipient, to assist persons with disabilities to undertake or continue their post-secondary education at an accredited post-secondary institution in British Columbia. Bursaries may be used for items such as tuition fees, textbooks, equipment, transportation, residence and support worker costs.

The bursary was established in 1988 by the family of Lisa Pauline Huus, a sociology student at the University of Victoria. “Lisa fought for her rights to go to university and be treated just like any other student,” says her mother Annie Huus. “We established this fund so that students with physical challenges like Lisa can access much-needed financial support to pursue their educational dreams.”

If you know an individual with a disability, who is looking to begin or continue their post-secondary education and could benefit from financial support, we encourage you to share this information with them. Please visit https://islandkidsfirst.com/lisa-huus-bursary/ for more information on the story behind the Lisa Huus Bursary, eligibility requirements and the application process. Applications will open March 2024. Additionally, you can email bursaries@islandkidsfirst.com or call 250-940-4950 to speak to one of our staff about this opportunity.
