## Resource

Alberta’s pouring over $1 billion into student aid to make post-secondary education more affordable—grants, scholarships, and loans designed to keep learners in class. Starting June 3rd for the 2026-27 school year, new criteria include parental or spousal income to ensure fair distribution, aligning with federal and provincial standards. The goal? Lighten financial burdens, boost transparency, and prioritize those who need it most. Apply online at least 60 days before classes begin—your one application covers both provincial and federal aid. Whether full- or part-time, eligible students can access support based on program length, study status, and financial need—all helping you finish your education without the stress.
