The “Immersion” scholarship is intended for students who undertake their college training in total or partial immersion in English or French at the Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles, while their language of study in high school was different. The scholarship program encourages the acquisition of a second language. The list of eligible students is sent to the Foundation by the Cégep. No application form is required.
The “Leadership” scholarship is designed to recognize a student’s outstanding extracurricular or community involvement. A $500 scholarship will be awarded from among the applications received.
