Prince Edward Island

For students living on Prince Edward Island, the Student Loans, Bursaries, Grants and Awards page on the provincial website details student aid information. No application is currently required for students, and you may be eligible for bursaries depending on the program you choose to study. To receive financial aid, you just need to enroll as a first-time student at one of the following post-secondary schools: UPEI, Holland College, Maritime Christian College, or College de l’Ile. You will then be automatically considered for grants by the government. Students in low to middle income families may be eligible for needs-based support in addition to other bursaries. Information on relevant grants, bursaries, awards, and student loan repayment is also available online.

The student loans page details the Canada Student Grant for students with permanent or prolonged disabilities, part-time student grant options, the Island-Advantage Needs-Based Bursary, and many other loans. It also includes a timetable for submitting documentation for financial aid.
