Grant and Funding Programs Offered by Foundation of Collège de l’Assomption

The Foundation of Collège de l’Assomption is the charitable arm of this long‑established private secondary school in Québec. Its primary role is to provide financial support in the form of scholarships and bursaries so that motivated students can attend the Collège even when their families’ financial resources are insufficient to cover tuition and related educational service fees.

On the Collège’s official website, the financial aid section clearly explains that, thanks to the Foundation, bursaries are offered to students who wish to pursue their secondary studies at the Collège. These bursaries apply directly to the cost of educational services and are granted as a credit to the parent’s account, thereby reducing the real financial burden of tuition.

The Foundation focuses on study bursaries aimed at improving access to quality secondary education. According to the information published by the Collège, a minimum of $50,000 is distributed in scholarships every year. Individual bursaries typically range from $500 to $3,000 per student, allowing the Foundation to assist multiple families annually while tailoring support levels to financial need.

Although the detailed selection criteria are not fully described on the tuition and financial aid page, the explicit objective is to help families whose financial situation would otherwise prevent their child from enrolling or remaining at the Collège. The bursaries are thus a targeted form of financial aid rather than general fundraising for infrastructure or projects.

Beneficiaries are students enrolled or wishing to enroll in one of the secondary study programs offered by Collège de l’Assomption, including both the regular program and the International Baccalaureate–aligned intermediate program. By partially covering educational service fees, the Foundation helps preserve socio‑economic diversity within the student community and supports equal opportunity in access to private education.

The Foundation’s recurring annual commitment and the structured range of bursary amounts indicate an ongoing, institutionalized grant‑making function, integrated into the Collège’s admissions and financial aid processes.
