Frequently Asked Questions - Community Organization Student Fellowships
-
Undergraduate students at Manitoban colleges or universities are eligible to apply and can request an organization to work with, or be matched by PRIME. Community organizations may also apply to host a student fellow, either with a student they already have in mind or by requesting PRIME to facilitate a match.
-
No, an existing partnership is not required at the time of application. You may indicate a preference in your application, and PRIME can help facilitate a match with a student or community organization.
-
Yes. The community organization must submit an application, and the student must also complete their own application as a Student Applicant. If a student applies first, they must ensure their host community organization also submits a corresponding Community Organization Applicant form.
-
• Community Applicants: A completed application & letter of support if the applicant is not in an organizational leadership role.
• Student Applicants: A completed application & CV/resume, transcripts (official or unofficial).
-
All payments will be issued on a monthly basis for students, and a lumpsum of $2000 will be issued as a cheque to the host community organziation.
