If you want to talk to someone in person, a financial aid manager is available on campus to help you with your loan application and tell you about other types of financial assistance, such as bursaries and scholarships.
Students who want to work part-time while they study can apply for such on-campus jobs as library assistants, office help, receptionists and switchboard operators; you’ll find the application forms in the Personnel Office. Off-campus jobs for students are listed in the Career Planning Centre located in Evaristus Hall.
The Financial Aid Office has information about scholarships and bursaries that are available from sources outside Mount Saint Vincent University. Notices of such awards are regularly advertised in the student newspaper and on bulletin boards throughout the University
