Federal and other provincial student loans and bursaries

In all cases, the basic qualification is that applicants must be Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents, with one year’s residency without pursuing full-time studies, and domiciled in the province to which they apply. When a student applies for financial assistance from the government (federal or provincial), and confirmation of enrollment is required on the application form, this confirmation of enrollment is signed by the Financial Aid and Awards Office.

For all out of province Financial Aid programs, Concordia's school code is FUAC.
