KANATA LEGION BURSARY ASSISTANCE PROGRAM 2025

Bursaries may be granted to the following students:

· Any person who is serving or who has honorably served in the Canadian Armed Forces (Regular and Reserve), their children and grandchildren;

· Merchant Navy personnel, their children and grandchildren;

· Commonwealth war veterans, their children and grandchildren;

· Ordinary and Life members of the Royal Canadian Legion, their children and grandchildren;

· Associate members of the Royal Canadian Legion and their children; and

· L.A. members, their children and grandchildren.

Applicants who have graduated from or reside in the Kanata area are given priority in the application process. Consideration is given to students who do not reside in the Kanata area, on the condition that funding is available.

The Bursary Program is designed to assist students entering or continuing their post-secondary education, including courses and programs of a technical and vocational nature, outside of and beyond secondary school. Approved bursary assistance is not based upon scholastic standing but rather on the successful admission status to a post-secondary institution or successful completion of one or more years leading to a recognized degree, diploma or certificate.

Applications must be returned to the Legion no later than June 1, 2025, for the upcoming academic year, September to August.
