The Newman Centre and the Newman Foundation have developed
scholarships over the past years in support of students
who work in campus ministry, the arts, and who share and
offer their gifts and talents within the Catholic community
at the Newman Centre or the wider Catholic community
on campus. The three scholarships currently offered
by the Newman Centre are listed below. Contributions
to the scholarship fund are received through the kindness
of individual donors, Newman alumni, parishioners,
and through the kindness of the Newman Foundation.
All contributions, large or small, are welcomed and tax
receipts are made available for any donations. Please consider
offering a donation for a scholarship to a deserving student.
The Student Campus Ministry Scholarship
This scholarship is awarded to a deserving student who
would like to join the campus ministry team for a year
but is unable to afford room and board costs associated
with living on campus. Each year,7 - 9 campus ministers,
male and female, make application to form the new Campus
Ministry Team, which assists the Pastor in working within
the parish and on campus while living at the Newman Centre. The
scholarship was established in 2003, in honour of Mary and
Pat Mulva, former parishioners greatly involved in the Centre.
The scholarship is awarded to one student per year.
The student is selected by the Pastor and his Admissions
Committee and first choice is given to a deserving student
who would need assistance with their room and board
fees. For information purposes, the room and board
fees for the Newman Centre residence is $725 per
month, $2,900 per term (4 months) or $5,800 per
year (8 months, Sept. - May). In addition, students
can apply as a Summer Campus Minister, June -
August (3 months at $725 per month). Persons
wishing to donate to this scholarship may offer contributions
large or small.
