Financial Aid for College

Financial Aid for College
Our Financial Aid staff are available to answer your questions, to guide you with applications and forms, to provide information about assistance programs and to listen to your concerns about financing your education. We can help you in-person, telephone, e-mail, by fax or by mail.

We administer federal and provincial student loan programs, scholarships and bursaries; general and program-related bursary funding from money donated by the College, individuals, companies and other organizations.

In partnership with the provincial government, Financial Aid administers the Student Access Guarantee which ensures students in financial need have assistance to cover the cost of their tuition, books and mandatory college fees. This financial aid is provided through bursaries, scholarships and campus employment programs. Please link to Bursaries, Scholarships on the left and the Ontario Work Study Plan, College Student Employment program below.
