If you are a Six Nations registered band member you are eligible to apply for full time or part time post secondary assistance.
WHAT IS AN ELIGIBLE PROGRAM?
An eligible post secondary program of study:
- must be equivalent to two academic years in length or more leading to a diploma or degree;
- be offered by an accredited post secondary institution;
- have secondary school completion or equivalent as a prerequisite for admission to the program;
- must lead to, or be for credit for, a diploma or degree.
Note: some post diploma programs of one academic year in length may be eligible. Please check with your Post Secondary Funding Advisor.
The following courses DO NOT meet post secondary program funding requirements of the GRPSEO: Additional qualification courses for teachers. College and University Entrance Programs that result in secondary school credits or any pre-college level programs deemed to be preparatory, exploratory or access oriented for college level study (i.e., not resulting in full post secondary credit).
Given the demand on student funding and the need to manage available resources on a long and short term basis, the GRPSEO reviews programs for eligibility in light of the length of time it takes for a student to graduate with education qualifications and skills that will result in employment. Where there is little evidence that the program will lead to direct employment, the GRPSEO may limit funding for a program.
