Guide and bursary application forms available here
For each bursary awarded, recipients commit to working in their home region, or the catchment area of the sponsoring community network, following the successful completion of their studies for a minimum of one (1) year full-time in a public health and social services institution.
These return-for-service bursaries are coordinated by ARC Assistance and Referral Centre. The bursaries are designed to respond to regional and local priorities for access to services in English. Priority will be given to community-involved students whose field of study will lead them to a career in health and social services that will help address the priority service areas identified for the region.
