91¶¶ÒõAlumni Family Scholarship

Supported by TD Insurance

We love to see 91¶¶Òõstudents following in their family member's footsteps. If you're an 91¶¶Òõalumnus, and you have a family member (child, grandchild, or parent of an alum) currently enrolled in an 91¶¶Òõprogram, they are eligible to apply for the 91¶¶ÒõAlumni Family Scholarship.

This Scholarship has been established to support and encourage the next wave of 91¶¶Òõalumni members while giving back to the 91¶¶ÒõAlumni family. We are pleased to award four scholarships annually to family members of past 91¶¶Òõgraduates.

Four $1,000 91¶¶ÒõAlumni Family Scholarships will be awarded to current 91¶¶ÒõStudents each year.

91¶¶ÒõAlumni provides these Scholarships as a benefit and a gesture of appreciation to our alumni and future alumni.
