CSHC Scholarship Opportunities For
Graduating Students
Many diverse scholarship opportunities are available to graduating students in local, national
and international categories. Scholarships are awarded to students for academic achievement,
involvement in either the school community or the local community. In addition, the St. James
Assiniboia School Division offers our students a wide variety of scholarships that celebrate the
hard work and success of our 2021 graduates.
CSHC Student Services is an excellent resource to learn about the opportunities available, but it
is important for students to explore the possibilities on their own to discover what is available
and determine what will be the best fit. In general, there are 3 ways to access scholarships.
1. The University of Manitoba, University of Winnipeg, Brandon University and
Université de St. Boniface award entrance scholarships to students graduating from
a Manitoba high school provided they submit a regular entrance application by the
specified deadline and meet the academic grades required. The scholarships range
from $800-$3,000. Students applying to post-secondary institutions outside of the
province should check the offers available where they plan to apply.
2. Students should also check the list of available scholarships below. Click on the
link and read the information to determine if you qualify. The school may require
additional information if a nomination process is in place or that award. In addition,
students are encouraged to sign up for one of the scholarship websites. An example
would be https://www.scholarshipscanada.com/
3. At the school level, students can apply for scholarships available to CSHC
graduating students using the survey form form located
here:https://www.sjasd.ca/school/sturgeonheights/About/Grad2020/Pages/default.as
px#/= . These scholarships include school board cash awards and other scholarships
offered through external organizations that are distributed to CSHC graduating
students in June at the graduation ceremony.
4. Please see the link below for the list of awards offered in the St. James-Assiniboia
School Division on behalf of contributions made to the St. James-Assiniboia Scholarship
Foundation. Awards are categorized by schools and education level.
https://www.sjasd.ca/AboutUs/Scholarship/AwardsList/Pages/default.aspx#/=
It is important to note that beyond entrance scholarships, there can be other university
scholarships available to students. Please use the financial aid and awards page of each
institution to determine what is available.Entrance Scholarship Information 2020-2021

Tips for success in applying for scholarships:
· Don’t leave the application to the last minute. Be aware of deadlines and the
application process involved.
· At the beginning of grade 12, talk to your references and to teachers who know
you well. Ask if they can write you a letter of reference to keep on file.· Make a list of what you have done over the past 4 years. Include everything that
you think might be pertinent and then check to see how each fits for the specific
award.
· Ask yourself how much time you have to devote to applications. Some will require
an essay, others a simple application, while others may be quite involved. Look at
past winners and learn from their experiences.
· Talk to parents and family members. They may know of scholarships available
through their place of work. Perhaps you have a part-time job at Burger King, Tim
Hortons – many of these businesses offer scholarships to employees as well.
