Applications for student loans and grants open June 3
Alberta post-secondary students who intend to apply for loans and grants can do so beginning June 3.
The Government of Alberta says it is investing more than $1 billion into student aid, which also includes scholarships and awards.
The province also says it is increasing non-repayable funding and updating eligibility assessments to better reflect each student’s financial position.
For certain applicants, parental or spousal contributions will be considered when determining financial need. These changes align Alberta with the Canada Student Financial Assistance Program and most other Canadian jurisdictions, the government says.
