College of the North Atlantic provides an opportunity to students in many programs to compete for a variety of awards, scholarships, bursaries and prizes. Awards are made possible by the generous contribution of our donors who represent numerous organizations, companies and individuals. Students are encouraged to apply and should be aware that awards are granted based on a variety of circumstances and specific criteria. While some awards are granted to high academic achievers, many awards are designated to well-rounded students who are performing satisfactorily in their program of study and who have demonstrated leadership, community/college involvement and school spirit.
