Thinking about going outside of Manitoba for Post Secondary?? 

For the first time in 23 years, we face national and provincial government restrictions that prevent us from host the Canadian Universities Fair in person. As an alternative, a website has been created for our Manitoba students who are searching for the "right fit" when it comes to choosing a post-secondary institution: 

https://www.canadauniversityfair.com/

This website provides information and links to virtual presentations for students and parents to carefully consider post-secondary institutions to which they are interested in applying.

Oh! The PLACES you'll go! 

Things to consider when choosing your "right fit"

P - Programs

L - Location

A - Admissions Requirements

C - Costs

E - Extracurricular Opportunities

S - Support Services

Though we cannot physically meet face-to-face, we can do so here!

​Post-secondary institutions, nationwide, once again, are making great efforts to reach students across the country to provide complete information and Q&A opportunities, so that students can be aware of the great range of higher education learning that is available in provinces across Canada!

On this site, you will find a list of participating institutions offering virtual presentations. Additionally, there are links to their websites for your convenience.

Join us in welcoming all representatives into our homes and schools, virtually of course!

Stay Safe,

Canada Student Services Grant ( Grade 12's going on to Post Secondary)

In response, the Government of Canada has created the Canada Student Service Grant (CSSG), a program that will provide thousands of qualified post-secondary students with learning and volunteer opportunities to address relevant COVID-19 challenges at Canadian not-for-profits during summer 2020. Students participating will be eligible to apply for a grant, which will provide up to $5,000 to be used towards post-secondary education costs. The grant is based on the number of validated volunteer hours completed between June 15 and September 15, 2020. Student volunteers receiving the Canada Emergency Student Benefit (CESB) ($1,250 monthly) are also eligible to apply for a CSSG.
