Please share what the Bursary program has meant for you so far in your post-secondary journey (mentorship, financial aid, career assistance)

I'm so grateful for the mentorship that this program provides has done for me. It helps me to think differently about not only my way around my studies but also how I think about myself and my personal and mental health. I've learned to take my mental health more seriously because it is just as important as my physical health.

2023 Academic/Personal Highlight

I'm proud of myself for creating and being able to maintain a work ethic that brought me success in my projects and exams. Although I started small, the results that I saw became a highlight of my semester.
