Alumni and friends of Mount Allison support students by creating scholarships, awards, and bursaries. We are deeply appreciative of their generosity and inspired by their philanthropy.

By helping build a more competitive and robust student financial aid program, donors empower a new generation of students — future leaders and engaged citizens of the world — and make Mount Allison’s unique education and experience possible to students, regardless of their financial situation.
