Anyone who is applying to basic or adult upgrading programs can access funds to the Continuing Education program. |
| |

Who is eligible to apply for Post Secondary Education Programs? |
| |
Anyone who is applying into college or university programs that fit under the required criteria: certificate programs are 10 months, diploma programs are 20 months and undergraduate degrees are 4 year programs. |
| |
. |
|
When should we apply? |
| |
It is a good idea to apply early each spring as most paper work takes time to process. Deadline dates for funding in the Continuing Education and the Post Secondary programs is June 15 of each year for the September start. |

|
Could I get incentive for my credits from High School? |
| |
Yes high school students not on an incentive program can receive payment for credits when report cards or transcript of grades are brought in. |
| |
. |
|
Would I qualify to attend a conference? In Junior High? In High School? For Post Secondary? |
| |
Yes junior and high school students can apply for certain school related workshops or conferences but will have to check the criteria in In-School Services criteria (availability of funds is a factor also)
For Post Secondary students there are rates that determine what you are eligible and they are in the Post Secondary Student Program Policies. Only one allowed per year and must be school-related. |

|
Do I have to wait for a full acceptance to a College or University or will a conditional acceptance be accepted? |
| |
Post Secondary student applicants can apply with a conditional acceptance letter and there is flex time for full acceptance. |

|
If I am in a College or a University Program and am failing a course can I withdraw? |
| |
Yes, this is possible. Students should always keep in contact with an advisor. Withdrawal forms need to be signed by the instructor and the student. It is a good idea to decide to withdraw early in the term because if you fail to do this then the letter "F" appears on transcripts. Once a withdrawal form is signed then "W" will show on the transcript instead. |
| |
. |
|
If I decide to change programs after I have started at a College or University is that alright? |
| |
This is possible but some institutes will charge a certain fee, however, students should make the consideration of ensuring that most courses are transferable into the program of 2nd choice. An important note to remember is that there is limited training months available for each program. Check the policies for this information. |

|
Who can help me in my course selections? |
| |
Most catalogues will outline the course requirements for college and university programs, however, it is always a good idea to meet with an advisor before committing to certain classes. The staff at EETF are also available to assist in course selections. |
The updated Ermineskin Education Trust Fund Strategic Plan will be available soon
