All Opportunities

Welcome to the NSCC Student Awards Portal. This is your place to apply for scholarships, awards, bursaries, and financial supports like Urgent Aid, Cost of Living Bursaries, and job/college‑readiness funding.

This directory gives future students and community members a look at what financial supports NSCC offers. Once you’re confirmed in a program, you’ll be able to log in and see award opportunities tailored to you—based on your program, campus, and the information you provide.

Please note: Only awards that are currently accepting applications will appear here. Others will show up when they open throughout the year.

To get started, sign in with your NSCC username and password, complete the General Application, and then check out your Recommended Opportunities.

For more information about the financial supports available at NSCC, visit nscc.ca/awards
