Description
The Alberta Student Grant for Full-time Students offers financial support to Alberta residents with lower incomes who are enrolled full-time in eligible post-secondary programs. The grant is designed to help with education and living costs and does not need to be repaid unless the recipient’s eligibility changes (e.g., dropping below full-time status or changes in financial need). Students are automatically assessed for this grant when they complete the full-time Student Aid application; no separate application is required.
