Passport to Success is an award designed for eligible Keyano College students who are single parents of dependent children. They must be enrolled in certificate or diploma program and must be unable to access student loan programs without undue hardship. The long-term goal of the Anonymous Donor Group and Nexen Inc. is to provide financial support for low income families to attend postsecondary and enhance their opportunity to experience higher earning power and job satisfaction. Recipients of the scholarship are eligible to receive tuition costs for themselves, as well as full or partial living expenses for themselves and their families while they are in school, for a maximum of two years. For more information, download a copy of Passport to Success Scholarship and the Terms for Maintaining Scholarship, or come in and speak with a Keyano College Counsellor.
