Hi
Can you tell me if these scholarships are being offered for 2021? I’m preparing a course for Vancouver Community College and I’d like to tell the students about this.
thanks!
Hi Catherine, yes we are offering student memberships again this fall and there will be an updated page on the website with information within a few weeks.
