Fondation Baxter & Alma Ricard Scholarship

Canadian francophones living in linguistic minority communities outside Quebec may apply to the Fondation Baxter & Alma Ricard for graduate or professional study support. Applicants need a first university degree (or expect to finish it in the current year), strong academics, and clear community leadership potential. Eligible paths include a second bachelor's, master's, doctorate, or professional programs such as MD, JD, PharmD, DDS, or DVM, with no restriction on discipline or language of study.

Grant values vary by recipient.

Confirm eligibility online first; once approved, you receive instructions to submit a full application.

The foundation was established by Alma Ricard to support francophone students after the death of her husband, Sudbury businessman Baxter Ricard.
