Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Association of Northern Alberta

SBHANA Undergraduate Scholarship

The SBHANA offers two post-secondary scholarships each year to students who have spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus.

Applicants must provide confirmation of spina bifida and/or hydrocephalus by a medical professional, be a Canadian citizen for at least two years, have a home address Red Deer, or north or NWT, and be accepted in a post secondary institution. Applicants must also currently be, or become a member of the SBHANA. Our membership form is available here.

Candidates are required to submit a letter of reference from a previous teacher or administrator (applicants who have been out of high school one or more years submit a letter from a recent employer or supervisor), an official Alberta Education or most recent post secondary transcript, and a letter from the candidate stating his or her eligibility, community involvement and plans for the future.

Each year, applications are due on August 31.
