Opportunity for Additional Student Funding

The Lesser Slave Forest Education Society is also a partner with the Northern Alberta Development Bursary. As such, students may be eligible to receive matching funds through this partnership. This would double the award to $1,000. Your participation in the Northern Alberta Develeopment Bursary is optional and should be weighed in light of the following paragraph.

After you graduate, the Northern Alberta Development Bursary requires you to live and work in northern Alberta. For every $500 in bursary funds, you commit to provide 1 month of return service in a profession related to field of studies with an employer of your choosing in northern Alberta. Recipients who do not meet this requirement must repay the bursary. Students must be entered in a full time post-secondary program to be eligible for the Northern Alberta Development Bursary and matching funds requires a separate application that will be emailed to you.
