If you need financial support of any sort – you aren’t alone.

For every 10 people in your classes, 6 will have received one or more of these types of support:

  • a loan
  • an award or scholarship
  • a bursary

Our financial aid and awards office can help. We'll be sensitive to your financial circumstances and needs.

Contact us to discuss what type(s) of assistance you might qualify for and what makes the most financial sense for you. Email financialaid@lakelandcollege.ca to ask a question or make an appointment.

Or, start by exploring your options and opportunities on the website.

Our awards program is substantial. Lakeland College provided over $1.6 million in awards, scholarships and bursaries in the 2024-25 academic year.

You do have choices from personal loans and help from family, to government student aid, sponsorships and external awards.
