These must be received prior to the application deadline. Nursing and After Degree Nursing students who have finished their time with the College should be applying to the UofL  for transfer awards as they don't fit into the continuing at LC or graduating from LC categories.

Current students who qualify for either scholarship are nominated by our office based on college data. However, we may need additional data from you so please continue to monitor your @lethbridgecollege.ca email account for emails from awards@lethbridgecollege.ca.  Failure to respond means missing out on being nominated.
