Southeast College students received $31,827.36 in scholarships and bursaries. The awards were distributed to students in various Weyburn programs including Continued Care Assistant, Practical Nursing, Hairstylist, Business Certificate, Adult Basic Education, and University.
This year a formal luncheon was unable to take place, but that did not subtract from the value of the awards.
“We are incredibly proud of our students, and everything they have achieved, and continue to work towards”said Kassandra Lawrenz, Manager, College Advancement. “Student awards are a great opportunity not only to celebrate the work our students put in, but also to recognize and express our most sincere gratitude to the outstanding support we receive from the community and our partners.”
Southeast College scholarships and bursaries are made possible by donations from community organizations, businesses and individuals, as well as various fundraising events such as the College’s Swing for Scholarships Golf Tournaments. Eligible funds are matched by the Ministry of Advanced Education through the Saskatchewan Innovation and Opportunity Scholarship (SIOS) program.
Southeast College is proud to be the Trainer of Choice in southeast Saskatchewan offering educational opportunities that encourage students to learn where they live. A number of post-secondary programs are now accepting applications for 2020-21. Interested students can find program information and apply for the program of their choice online at www.southeastcollege.org or call any of the College’s campus locations for more information.
