TORONTO, March 11, 2024 /CNW/ - The CST Foundation announced today that it is now accepting applications for its 2024 Awards and Bursaries program. This year, CST is set to deliver $248,000 worth of awards and bursaries for students pursuing post-secondary studies for the first time. Applications will remain open until Friday, April 26, 2024.
The Founders' Awards support students who have benefited from a Canadian Scholarship Trust RESP and are entering in post-secondary undergraduate studies. This year, we will award 14 Founders' Awards valued at $7,000 each.
The CST Foundation Bursaries are awarded to students who require financial assistance to access post-secondary education for the first time. From university degrees to apprenticeships, all Canadian post-secondary education programs are eligible for bursaries. We offer 25 Bursaries valued at $6,000 each.
"The expansion of our 2024 Awards program allows us to reach more Canadians while continuing to increase our impact on access to post-secondary education for under-represented youth," said Sherry MacDonald, President and CEO. "Our Awards and Bursaries program is just one way CST continues to deliver on its mission."
CST partnered with myBlueprint to help raise awareness of this opportunity with eligible students.
