All undergrad student members of St. Paul’s are automatically considered for various merit scholarships and prizes that the College awards each year.  For the majority of scholarships just simply study hard and wait for notification in the mail, and for a few you will need to fill out an application form.  When considering courses for the coming year, students are encouraged to inquire into areas where scholarships are awarded.  You can do this by contacting the Dean of Studies through the General Office, Room 209.  All of these performance awards are presented at the Opening Academic Exercises in September or the St. Paul’s Day Mass in January. If you have any questions please feel free to contact us at (204) 474-8575 or stpauls@umanitoba.ca. Forms are available on line at www.umanitoba.ca/colleges/st_pauls under Awards and Bursaries or in the General Office, Room 209 in St. Paul's College.

E.  BURSARIES

BURSARY APPLICATION FORM 

In addition, St. Paul’s students can apply for scholarships, fellowships, bursaries and prizes offered by the University of Manitoba.  Information on these is available from the Awards Office, 423 University Centre. (www.umanitoba.ca/student/fin_awards)

i.  Bursaries are awarded on the basis of need to full time students registered at St. Paul’s College for the current session, i.e. the session in which they have applied for a bursary.  Need represents 50% of the criteria in choosing winners of bursaries.  However, other factors such as special circumstances and involvement in the spiritual, social and political events at the College, or at their high school, in the case of newly admitted students, are also factors in determining who receives a bursary.

Need is determined by means of the assessment of need provided by the University of Manitoba student Financial Assistance Office.

ii.  G.P.A.:  Though bursaries are awarded on the basis of need, a G.P.A. of 2.50 in the previous Fall/Winter session is necessary in order to be eligible, except in the case of a student admitted to the University of Manitoba for the first time.  Normally, as with the University of Manitoba bursaries, an average of C+ is necessary in the case of students entering St. Paul’s College from high school.

iii.  Full time students are those registered for at least 60% of a full course load in a particular program and/or year.

iv.  Application is made by completing a St. Paul’s College Bursary Application form, available at the Office of the Dean of Studies, St. Paul’s College, and by completing a Manitoba Student Financial Assistance Application Form at http://www.studentaid.gov.mb.ca/, though a student need not accept a student loan to be eligible.

v.  Acceptance:  Within 15 days of notification the awardee must provide the Dean of Studies with a letter of acceptance, otherwise the award will be conferred on another candidate.

vi.  Deferral:  Bursaries may not be deferred, except as approved by the Dean of Studies in writing.  Students may be declared ineligible because their academic circumstances have changed and now violate the appropriate academic profile as defined by this document.

vii.  Dates of Bursaries:  Bursaries are awarded normally by letter usually around the end of December.  Application forms can be picked up from the Dean of Studies at St. Paul’s College or on line.  Deadline is Friday, September 8, 2007.
