Meet a student in the educational aid program The St. Andrew's Society has supported education throughout its history, and is proud to be able to provide financial assistance to qualified students. Many thanks to our members whose generosity makes this program possible. Scots care! By Angus Murdoch I am truly honoured to be selected as a recipient by the St Andrew’s Society of Montreal for this generous academic bursary. Your generosity and kindness has allowed me to pick my top post secondary option, McGil University. This bursary is a great deal to me and my parents, and will have me push myself to excel in the classroom to keep it. I will be studying in the Faculty of Education this fall and I am excited to see what is to come with this school year. As I complete my education at McGill, I will be forever thankful for this gift as it will help me study at the top university in Canada and have less student debt. I hope to thank everyone that helped me achieve this, in person, throughout my residency in Montreal. Are you a full-time student in a CEGEP or university? Do you have Scottish ancestry? You may qualify for a St. Andrew's Society educational bursary! Applications are now open for the current round. For more information and to apply, visit the St. Andrew's Society website.
