If you are a Candidate for ministry from The East Central Ontario Regional Council (ECORC) and were enrolled at an accredited theological school during the period September 2023 to August 2024, you are eligible for the ECORC Student Bursary. Bursary money is available to those who are Candidates in the Ordained or Diaconal streams and in school. This money has been made available from the bursary funds of the former Bay of Quinte Conference. The amount of bursaries each year is dependent upon the available funds in the bursary account as well as the number of Candidates applying. The amount each Candidate receives is based upon the number of courses being taken during the year. The courses are based all courses taken throughout the year, not just the traditional academic year, but summer courses as well. Equivalencies are given for those who are in programs which do not follow the traditional academic outline to ensure that those studying in the AST distance program or through CCS, for example, receive the same level of funding.
