Overview

Guided by the GNWT’s commitment to ensuring residents are supported in achieving their post-secondary goals, the GNWT completed a review of the Student Financial Assistance (SFA) program and is proposing some exciting changes to better support NWT students.

The proposed changes to the Student Financial Assistance Regulations will provide more financial support to assist students with the cost of post-secondary education and will remove barriers that students face.

The public was invited to review the proposed regulations and a plain language summary of the proposed changes to the regulations and provide feedback to ece_income_security@gov.nt.ca by May 31, 2023.
