Martin Luther University College (Luther) is a federated college of Wilfrid Laurier University. Luther graduate students are eligible for some Laurier bursaries and awards. To be considered, fill out the General Profile on the Student Awards tab on LORIS between Aug. 4 and Sept. 29. (Visit Student Awards for more information about the General Profile.)

If you are a graduate student taking a full-time course load, you will automatically receive a bursary of about $600 per term (students receiving senior tuition exemption are not eligable for this bursary). The exact amount varies slightly from year to year. There’s no need to apply for this bursary. We award it based on your registration after the last day to add courses for the term. It may take several weeks to appear on your student account, so don’t worry if you don’t see it right away.
Over the years, we’ve collected several bursaries in the form of financial endowments. Annual financial-aid bursaries are issued on the basis of financial need. We issue these bursaries only once per year. Applications can be submitted between Aug. 4 and Sept. 29. Your application is not complete unless you have followed all three of the following steps by the deadline:
The FaithLife Financial Scholarship program is available to members of FaithLife Financial. One-time scholarships are awarded each year to a limited number of members pursuing a full-time undergraduate or graduate university degree, or college diploma at any accredited institution in, or outside of, Canada.
Luther graduate students are members of the Wilfrid Laurier University Graduate Students’ Association (GSA). The GSA provides a slate of services to graduate students including an extended health and dental insurance plan, career counselling, and discounts through a variety of resources. It also administers a number of different funds, including funds that can help you pay for attending professional development workshops, new technology, or many other grad-student expenses.
External scholarship competitions awarded on the basis of academic merit are listed by the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (FGPS). Normally Luther students are eligible for social science competitions. Students with a psychotherapy focus could also consider applying under health categories. Contact Graduate Studies and the Student Advisor for more information.
