Bursaries for Postsecondary Studies in French as a Second Language

Application deadline varies by post-secondary school.  Contact your post-secondary school to check.

The Bursaries for Postsecondary Studies in French as a Second Language Program, funded by the Government of Canada and administered by the Association des collèges et universités de la francophonie canadienne (ACUFC), aims to encourage students whose first official language spoken is English, to pursue their postsecondary studies in French. The objective is simple: Allow a greater number of English-speaking Canadians to become bilingual.

If your first official language spoken is English and you are pursuing your postsecondary studies in French in Canada, you could be eligible for a non-renewable $3,000 bursary!

Eligibility:
- Canadian citizen or permanent resident of Canada
- English as first language
- completing high school studies in English
- be enrolled full-time in a college program (minimum duration of one year) or university program (minimum duration of two years) delivered in French by a post-secondary entity that participates in the program.
