Bursary Description


This past week as part of Southeast College’s Student Appreciation Week, students in Adult Basic Education and various post-secondary programs received $31,000 in financial bursary awards.

This year, the format for distributing Southeast College Bursary Awards was changed. Students received the awards at the midpoint of their programs to ensure they had access to funds when they needed support the most. Award presentations took place in Weyburn on February 10, Estevan on February 11, and Whitewood on February 12. A total of 26 awards were given to 26 different students throughout the Southeast College Region.

“We are incredibly proud of our students and everything they have achieved and continue to work towards,” said Jody Holzmiller, Interim President and CEO. “We have received encouraging and positive feedback from our students, donors, and communities regarding the slight change in the bursary and scholarship distribution format. We are so grateful for the ongoing support that our College and our students receive.”

Applications for academic-based scholarships will open in March, with distribution occurring as part of our annual graduation ceremonies.

Southeast College bursary donations are made possible thanks to community organizations, businesses and individuals, as well as various fundraising events such as the College’s Swing for Scholarships Golf Tournaments.  Eligible funds are matched by the Ministry of Advanced Education through the Saskatchewan Innovation and Opportunity Scholarship (SIOS) program.

Southeast College is proud to offer innovative and flexible programming that encourages students to learn where they live.
