Student Loans & Bursaries
Manitoba Student Aid provides supplemental financial assistance for post-secondary educational purposes to Manitobans with limited finances. It is based on a formula that compares educational costs to expected contributions, income and assets. Loans are interest-free while you maintain your full-time student status. You must begin repayment of the loan six months after you cease to be a full-time student. (Full-time is considered a minimum of 60% of a full course load.)
Apply in June to see if you are eligible to receive a loan, grant or bursary.
