NWT Health and Social Services Bursary Program
The Northwest Territories Health and Social Services System Bursary Program is available each academic year to students from the Northwest Territories pursuing an education in a high-demand field related to health and social services.
The number of applicants supported through the program will vary from year to year, depending on the availability of funding and the number of eligible applications.
The application period for the 2025/26 academic year is now closed.
The 2025/26 application review process is complete, and the applicants have been notified. The funding has been fully allocated for this bursary session, and we will not require an additional application period.
Check back in the spring of 2026 for details on the upcoming 2026/27 application session. In the meantime, please read the NWT HSS Bursary Program Guidelines and refer to our Frequently Asked Questions to learn more about the program.
Past bursary recipients, please keep us up-to-date by using the Change in Contact and Personal Information form.
