Overview

I wanted to move away from home (Nova Scotia) and Memorial was the cheapest option of tuition while still being able to get out of the province. I applied to 3-4 colleges, all of them being local besides Memorial. My graduation score from high school was 85% and I did get into all schools I applied to.

Scholarship

Yes, I have received Federal and Provincial student loans. The process was quite easy, and was mostly done online. After the first application, each additional year of funding is a much simpler process.

Scholarship

Overview

Mainly because I could stay in my home province to do what I wanted which means a significant break on tuition and fees because of my location. I knew people, and I could stay close to those I loved and cherished.

I have received a few scholarships. Most are automatically based on grades and faculty opinion. All students are considered for entrance scholarships.
