What you need to get started.
Your education is one of the most important investments you’ll make in your lifetime, and like many students, you may need assistance with paying for tuition. Our educational funding specialists will help you navigate the different funding options that may be available to you, such as:
All provinces offer financial aid in the form of student loans.* Student loans are specifically designed to help make tuition and fees affordable to those who qualify. Some provinces may also offer grants to eligible students.
Our educational funding departments stand ready to provide you with information and assist you with the application process.
*Loan eligibility and awards may vary by province.
Self-funding all, or part of your education, is one of the best ways to invest in your future. Perhaps you’ve set aside money over the years (such as in an RRSP or RESP) or you’re planning to work while in school. Your family and relatives can also be a source of financial support.
Students in participating provinces may be eligible for government funding.
A student line of credit gives you access to funds that you can use to pay for tuition and other expenses.
With most student lines of credit, you only need to apply once, and the money is there for you to borrow as you need it. And in most cases, there are no annual or monthly fees—you pay interest only on what you borrow.
Several major banks offer lines of credit specially designed for students.
Herzing offers a variety of scholarships to qualifying students. Bursaries and grants may also be available through the provincial and federal governments. Please check with your preferred campus location for details.
