Canada Student Grant for Students with Dependants

This program helps full-time students with dependants with the cost of education. The grant provides up to $280 per month of study for each child under 12 years of age (temporarily increased by 40% from pre-pandemic levels until July 31, 2026). The grant is automatically assessed when students apply for a student loan through StudentAid BC, requiring no separate application. It is designed to support low-income families where students are pursuing post-secondary education while caring for young children.
