Report Eligibility for All Scholarships – Due August 31, 2026

The Ministry of Education and Child Care uses records provided by schools to confirm students’ eligibility for all awards under the Provincial Scholarships Program:

As per policy, August 31, 2026, is the deadline for eligibility requirements to be met by students graduating from the 2025-26 school year. Please ensure student records are reported accurately so eligible graduates will be considered appropriately for scholarships this fall. Find reporting resources on the GRAD Information web page.

A note on citizenship/permanent residency: Canadian citizenship/permanent residency is one of the core requirements of the Provincial Scholarships Program. Canadian citizens and permanent residents must be reported with a value of “C” in GRAD extracts from student information systems that are uploaded to EDX Graduation. Verify this by reviewing student Transcript Verification Reports on the School Secure Web. Only students who have a value of “C” reported to the ministry are considered for scholarships. All other values, including blank entries, result in ineligibility. 

Encourage all Grade 12 students to register for a StudentTranscripts Service account, where confirmation notices for all four awards within the Provincial Scholarships Program will be posted this fall.

Please email scholarships@gov.bc.ca with questions.
