We know you'll do your best in the classroom, and we'll do our best to help you get there. We offer over $5 million annually in undergraduate scholarships and awards, including entrance scholarships and entrance scholar-bursaries.
We also encourage you to apply for external awards to supplement your scholarships, loans, and savings.
When you apply to Acadia, you'll be automatically considered for grade-based entrance scholarships. Follow the steps below to apply for more entrance scholarships and other helpful sources of funding:
1. Receive a Letter of Offer
Congratulations! Once you're accepted, we'll send you a letter of offer that will let you know if you're being considered for scholarships.
2. Complete your scholarship application and endorsement forms
Submit the online scholarship application and have a reference submit an endorsement form. We'll use this information, along with your grades, in the scholarship review process.
3. If you're planning to apply for a student loan, apply for our scholar-bursaries
Scholar-bursaries are additional awards for students with unmet financial need who intend to apply for a student loan. Scholar-bursaries can provide even more funding in addition to your entrance scholarships.
4. Apply for external awards
There are many awards available from non-profits, companies, and government. Take some time to explore these opportunities. Check out our list of scholarship portal websites, plus awards available to Indigenous students and students with disabilities.
Scholarship Application Deadline: March 1
5. We'll confirm your scholarships
If you are a successful scholarship recipient, you will receive your award package in mid-March.
