Awards, like scholarships or bursaries and grants, do not have to be repaid. Some awards require you to demonstrate financial need, while others recognize academic achievements, community involvement or other accomplishments.
NVIT hosts a variety of internal awards open only to NVIT students and many external awards available to all students at various institutions in the province. We are very appreciative of and acknowledge the generosity of our continuous supporters.
