POST SECONDARY SCHOOLS -
SCHOLARSHIPS -
Gr. 12 students who will be attending a post-secondary institution in the fall are encouraged to apply for one of the two $1000 scholarships that are offered by the Whitecourt Fish and Game Association. They are reaching out to our students because they are receiving no applications so your chances of being successful are very high. Preference will be given to students who are entering the environmental resource field. The deadline to apply is June 15 so come down to the Wrap Around, get an application and get it sent out. You might be the only one applying.
The Spruce Grove Ag Society is offering a scholarship to assist a post secondary student enrolled in an agriculture related field of studies. Although the Scholarship has a residency stipulation, Onoway High School students are being included as there may be a cross boundary student who could qualify. It might be of interest that the 2022 recipient was Sarah Bowman, an OHS grad, who lived outside our boundaries but belonged to a 4-H club in Parkland County. See a counsellor in the Wrap Around or the posters around the school for more information.
The Henry Tomlinson Memorial Scholarships, a total of $5000, are sponsored by Ste. Anne Natural Gas and are now accepting applications and has a deadline of June 30. They are intended for Gr. 12 students whose families are SANG Utility members or who live in a SANG service area. For more information, come down to the Wrap Around and see one of the counsellors or check out one of the posters around the school.
The Town of Onoway has a $500 bursary. Information is posted in the Wrap Around room. For students who are still interested in applying for scholarships, this can be an opportunity to gain an additional competitive edge, as many students' interest in scholarships has lessened by this time of year.
Here are some unique scholarships that are currently available and don't have very many completed applications.
