Transforming learning for over 50 years!

Over the past 50 years, Laurentian University has grown into a leading Canadian centre for education innovation driven by the unique intellectual, social, economic, health and environmental issues facing northern Ontario. One of only two fully bilingual universities in Canada, Laurentian is a key economic driver, providing young people with world-class educational opportunities and positioning them for success in the emerging economies of Ontario’s north and beyond.

Committed to its original mission as a primarily undergraduate institution, Laurentian gives students a solid platform from which to excel in their careers and their communities. Laurentian offers some of the smallest class sizes in Canada and provides a personal and dedicated approach to education. Laurentian University is proud of its 35,000 graduates who have gone on to occupy responsible positions in the workforce, and whose influence can be read, felt, heard and seen across Canada and abroad.

Laurentian is the University of Choice for an increasing number of students: enrolment has increased dramatically, surging from 6,000 to 9,000 students since 2000. Admissions for 2009-2010 increased 11%, along with the average entry grade. The university has also seen a 350% increase in international student registration over the past few years, reaching almost 400 students. 

Last year Laurentian awarded more than $7 million in financial aid. However, along with our growing number of students, comes and increase demand for student financial aid. This is where we need your help.

Establishing an award to benefits students is easy. You may choose to reward academic excellence by establishing a scholarship or choose to give toward a bursary to support students whose academic success may be put at risk by their financial constraints.

The Government of Ontario is currently matching gifts directed to endowed student financial aid, making this an ideal time to contribute to student bursaries.  And, if you work for a matching gift company your donation can potentially be worth four times its original value.
