Emily Cares Student Emergency Fund Application

Apply for an Emergency Bursary Online

Through the Emily Cares Student Emergency Fund, the university will provide up to $200 to students in urgent financial need.

These non-repayable bursaries are to help cover essential living expenses and can provide a modest buffer while you seek additional sources of support.

Funds are limited, and we unfortunately can’t guarantee assistance to all applicants. But we do encourage you to apply if you are experiencing hardship. 

While we hope the Emily Cares bursaries provide some immediate relief to those facing lost income or unforeseen expenses, we recognize that for many of you the need is much greater. 

If you have questions about this or any other financial aid opportunities, contact finawards@ecuad.ca.

This will help us better understand students' needs and possibly direct you to other resources.

We are currently unable to process physical cheques and must transfer funds directly to an account at a Canadian financial institution. You will need to complete our Electronic Funds Transfer application form to receive a bursary. If you have questions, or do not have an account at a Canadian financial institution, contact finawards@ecuad.ca.
