SVI Bursary Application

The SVI has a limited bursary fund available to assist families with the costs of attending the institute. The bursary application deadline is May 31. To apply, please complete the online form below.

There are two separate parts to the application process. The first part is the online form below. Your child’s teacher will also need to complete a confidential Teacher Recommendation Form by way of an online link we send to them directly. Without the Teacher Recommendation Form, the application is incomplete and will not be considered.

All applications will be treated as confidential by the SVI Awards Committee.
If this student is awarded a Bursary, the funds will be paid directly to the SVI on the student’s behalf.

SVI Bursaries are intended to cover all or part of the tuition portion of fees only.

Criteria

Preference will be given . . .

  • to students for whom attending SVI will be especially beneficial
  • to families in financial need
  • to students who are members of a racially disadvantaged group
  • and if the student’s instrument and playing level will enhance the overall enrolment balance at SVI this may also be a factor in the Committee’s final decision.
Enter a $ amount. Bursaries may cover the tuition portion of fees only, and barring exceptional circumstances, it is preferred that families demonstrate the value they place on this experience by covering part of the cost.
