How do I apply for a bursary? To apply for a bursary, fill out the Bursary Application Form. You will need to include:

Your basic contact information
Some information about how you plan to pay for college or university
A 250 word essay on why you should receive this award
The name and email address of a teacher, principal, or guidance counsellor who will give you an Academic Reference

You should get all the information together before you start the application form. That includes writing your essay and asking someone to be your Academic Reference. What happens after I apply? We will email your reference for information about your grades, volunteering, and interest in law. Once they reply, we will save your information in our database. The bursary committees will make their decisions in July. They will contact the winners directly. All winners will be required to submit proof that they are enrolled in a justice-related program at a college or university.
