Luther College Scholarships and Bursaries

Luther College, a federated college of the University of Regina, awards nearly $100,000 a year in its own named scholarships and bursaries to entering and continuing students registered in Luther Arts, Luther Media, Art, and Performance (formerly Fine Arts), Luther Science, or Luther La Cité. A single online application each year is used to consider students for the full range of named awards, which are funded by alumni, faculty, families, and organisations connected to the college.

Awards fall into two categories applied for separately: entrance awards for students entering first year (or transferring in without an established grade record), and continuing-student awards for those who have completed at least 12 credit hours of post-secondary study. The Luther Medal of Distinction Award is awarded separately at each Spring Convocation. Luther students remain eligible for the University of Regina's own scholarships and bursaries on top of these college-specific awards.
