About this opportunity
The Learning for Future Grant is a financial assistance program offered by StudentAid BC to support students who were formerly in government care. The grant provides $3,500 annually (per program year from August 1 to July 31) to help cover education-related costs not covered by the Provincial Tuition Waiver Program, such as textbooks, computers, and supplies. To be eligible, students must meet all eligibility criteria for the Provincial Tuition Waiver Program and be enrolled in a program or course below graduate level that leads to a credential (citation, certificate, diploma or degree). Each study period must be a minimum of 6 weeks or 35 tuition hours in duration. First-time applicants must submit an application through their institution's Financial Aid Office to StudentAid BC, while returning students need only submit an annual Declaration form.
