Arrata Family Award for New Canadians

Foreign-born permanent residents who are new Canadians (within 2 to 5 years), registered at a Calgary Board of Education institution for the full Grade 12 year, attending a Canadian high school for at least two years, completing high school diploma requirements within 15 months of graduation, demonstrating academic progress in Grade 12 and financial need, planning to pursue post-secondary education, and intending to obtain Canadian citizenship may apply.
