Financial Aid & Awards 

Education should be accessible for everyone, and you shouldn't have to worry about finances while you study. We offer consultation on student loan issues and can assist with your applications for financial assistance.

Scholarships, Bursaries, and Awards

CNC offers over 300 individual scholarships, bursaries, and awards ranging from $250 to $2000, some based primarily on academic achievement and others on financial need. Unlike loans, these awards do not need to be repaid. Students must be currently attending courses at CNC in order to apply.
