HÂþ»­ Alumni Family Scholarship

Supported by TD Insurance

We love to see HÂþ»­ students following in their family member's footsteps. If you're an HÂþ»­ alumnus, and you have a family member (child, grandchild, or parent of an alum) currently enrolled in an HÂþ»­ program, they are eligible to apply for the HÂþ»­ Alumni Family Scholarship.

This Scholarship has been established to support and encourage the next wave of HÂþ»­ alumni members while giving back to the HÂþ»­ Alumni family. We are pleased to award four scholarships annually to family members of past HÂþ»­ graduates.

Four $1,000 HÂþ»­ Alumni Family Scholarships will be awarded to current HÂþ»­ Students each year.

HÂþ»­ Alumni provides these Scholarships as a benefit and a gesture of appreciation to our alumni and future alumni.
