ESP Entrance Bursaries
Thanks to the generosity of donors, the Enriched Support Program has six entrance bursaries available to students entering the program. A bursary is a financial award made based on financial need. They are more like a scholarship than a loan because bursaries (like scholarships) do not have to be repaid.
The application deadline for ESP entrance bursaries is August 31st. The bursaries below range in value from $1000 to $3600.
- Please note: While the terms of the ESP entrance bursaries are quite specific, there are other bursaries available to all students that have much broader terms. The general Carleton bursary application will open in September and you’ll have till October 31st to apply. Those bursaries are awarded in December/January. Reminders will be sent to you by email in our ESP Advising Bulletins throughout the term.
