Rutherford Scholarship
A monetary award for a 75%+ average in a combination of certain HS courses. You apply in AUGUST after graduation and when you have PROOF of enrollment for your post-secondary program. Here is the criteria.
Some common questions about Rutherford Scholarship
Should I apply even if I am unsure I meet the required average?
YES! Alberta Student Aid does an automatic assessment of your academic average. THEY DO THE WORK! Many students qualify in Gr. 10, 11 and 12, and are not aware. You can also talk to your career counsellor about whether you may qualify.
Another question is ...
I am an Alberta resident and I will attend a post-secondary school outside of Alberta or Canada. Can I still apply for Rutherford Scholarship?
Yes, you can attend a post-secondary school anywhere in the world as long as it is an eligible post-secondary school as defined under the Alberta Heritage Scholarship Regulation Act.
