Bursaries are a supplemental source of funding for students with demonstrated financial need; that is, they should not be treated as your primary source of funding.

Bursaries are available to Canadian and International students.  You should be aware that you may not be awarded a bursary every term. Due to the high volume of applications received each term, payment of funds to eligible students will be processed in the middle of the term of application, after the tuition payment deadline.  We encourage you to plan accordingly.

The following bursaries do not require a portfolio and are adjudicated by SFU Financial Aid and Awards office.
