Macewan University Scholarships, Bursaries & Awards 2017-2018 First Scholarships, Nation, Bursaries & Métis & Inuit Awards Students kihêw waciston, Indigenous Centre 2017-2018 City Centre Campus Room 7-131 What is the difference between a Scholarship, Bursary and an Award? A Scholarship is a monetary recognition for outstanding academic achievement. A Bursary is based upon demonstrated financial need while maintaining good academic standing. An Award may be a monetary or other form of recognition based on nomination or demonstrable criteria such as volunteerism or leadership, and may include but is not limited to academic achievement or financial need; secondary selection criteria may be included for all the above. When should I be applying for Scholarships, Bursaries and Awards? Start looking for application deadlines within the first week of the semester. There are scholarships, bursaries and awards available throughout the school year. How to apply for Scholarships? Apply for all individual scholarships for which you are eligible. Answer all questions accurately and completely. If asked, be sure to provide information on such items as offices held, special awards, special projects, sports activities, volunteer services, and special interests of skills. Letters of Recommendation may be requested by some scholarship organizations. Here are a few helpful hints when requesting a letter: • Ask someone who you’re confident would write a great recommendation. • Provide all information to the person from whom you requested. • Request permission before listing anyone as a reference. • Provide plenty of time for the individual to write the recommendation. • Be sure to thank the individual, a note or letter would be courteous. kihêw waciston 2017-2018 MacEwan Indigenous Centre HELPFUL HINTS Study hard: Scholarships usually have a minimum average that you must attain to be eligible.

Ask around! Volunteer opportunities may be found at local businesses, hospitals, senior facilities, community service clubs and athletic facilities. … at school Get involved in whatever your passion may be!

  • 1 Party Democracy in Alberta
    1 Party Democracy in Alberta Political parties occupy an important place in democratic politics, as they, among other things, provide a link between citizens and the state. It is through parties that citizens have opportunities to affect the composition of governmental elites. In the words of the Royal Commission on Electoral Reform and Party Financing, “Political parties give voters meaningful choices, both in the direct election of their individual Member of Parliament and in the indirect election of a government” (Volume 1: 207). Parties perform a crucial pre-selection function for the political system, since in most liberal democracies, attaining party office is a necessary and occasionally suffi- cient condition for obtaining government office. The internal activities of political parties are thus of interest to those con- cerned with the health of democracy. As Michael Gallagher explains, “the way in which political parties select their candidates may be used as an acid test of how democratically they conduct their internal affairs” (1988: 1). This issue is of more than just academic significance. Citizens in elections are largely restricted to choosing from among the candidates that parties deign to put before them. This point was demonstrated vividly by Boss Tweed (former Democratic Party boss in New York), who suggested: “I don’t care who does the electing, just so I can do the nominating” (as quoted in Courtney 1995: 127). Possession of the ability to choose their party’s standard-bearer in a gen- eral election is one of the most jealously guarded prerogatives of local party activists in Canada (see Carty 1991).
