The Laurier Milton Admission Bursary is a new renewable bursary available exclusively to undergraduate students beginning their studies in fall 2025 at Laurier’s Milton campus. 

The bursary is worth up to $5,000 over four years, with $1,250 being awarded each year.  

Plus, the bursary can be combined with other financial awards, like entrance scholarships and the entrance bursary, allowing you to receive additional financial support in your first year.
