Ernest J. Brennan Entrance Scholarship

The Ernest J. Brennan Entrance Scholarship is granted to a student entering UPEI from a Prince Edward Island high school that is located in a rural community, based on the greatest financial need. This scholarship was established by David M. Brennan, CPA, CA (UPEI BBA '86) as a gift to his father, Ernest J. Brennan, FCPA, for one of his milestone birthdays. Ernest J.
