It is that time of year for Saskatchewan’s graduating high school students who are busy applying for post-secondary scholarships. Since 2006, CAA Saskatchewan has provided annual entrance scholarships to Saskatchewan’s three educational institutions including the University of Saskatchewan, University of Regina, and Saskatchewan Polytechnic. Each educational institution administers the scholarships, including the application forms and selection of successful candidates. The applicants are evaluated on academic excellence, economic needs, and other factors, including participation in extra-curricular activities or community involvement.

The scholarships at the University of Saskatchewan and the University of Regina are $2,500 at each institution. Applicants must be either a CAA Saskatchewan member or a child of a member, and a Saskatchewan resident.

At Saskatchewan Polytechnic, the CAA Saskatchewan Scholarships are $3,750 in total and include the Automotive Service Technician program at the Saskatoon campus ($1,250) and at the Moose Jaw campus ($1,250), plus the Auto Body Technician Certificate program ($1,250) at the Regina campus. The CAA scholarships at Saskatchewan Polytechnic are available May 15 to July 31st to CAA Saskatchewan members and non-members.

Fred Titanich, President & CEO, CAA Saskatchewan, remarked: “On behalf of our valued members, staff, and board of directors, we are pleased to help students continue their Saskatchewan educational journey through the CAA Scholarship program. Best wishes and congratulations to all successful applicants.”

According to Kris Brown, Associate Vice President, Advancement at Saskatchewan Polytechnic, “Donors are essential to ensuring students have a clear path to reaching their goals. Your thoughtful gifts make a significant impact by changing the path of students’ lives, enabling them to achieve their full potential. Thank you for supporting Sask. Polytech students.”
