New Award for Yukon College students from Royal Roads

Yukon College transfer students are now eligible for a new award at Royal Roads University. Yukon College has been added to the eligibility list for the College Transfer Entrance Award. The recipient of this award will receive a $2000 tuition credit for transferring to Royal Roads University.

Yukon College is a member of the British Columbia Council on Admissions and Transfer (BCCAT), and this membership ensures that Yukon College students can transfer credits to other institutions throughout the province of British Columbia. Students are eligible for the entrance award from Royal Roads if they are transferring into one of the following programs: BA in International Hotel Management, BA in Justice Studies, BA in Professional Communication, BCom in Entrepreneurial Management, BSc in Environmental Management, and BSc in Environmental Science.

“We are pleased to have additional institutions support students who are transferring to schools outside the Yukon”, said financial aid advisor, Bente Sorensen. “The tagline for Yukon College is “start here, go anywhere”, and financial support from the receiving institutions helps students go where they need to go, to continue their schooling”, said Sorensen.

The application deadline for the College Transfer Entrance Award is May 1st. Yukon College students are to apply directly to Royal Roads. More information and application forms can be found at www.royalroads.ca/awards.
