For students in need of financial assistance, there are several options that the School may suggest, based on their individual needs.
AFE-SFA – Quebec Loans and Bursaries Program
All NTS programs are recognized by the Quebec government for the Student Financial Assistance Program (SFA).
To be eligible for the SFA, a student must be a Canadian citizen, permanent resident, or have refugee or protected person status, as well as have proof of Quebec residency.
In order to apply, a student must also have a Permanent Code and Social Insurance Number.

Emergency Loans
Generally, loans are granted between the end of September to mid-April. All applications must be submitted to Marc-André Durocher, Student Services Manager. The maximum amount during a single school year is $1000.
IMPORTANT NOTE: To be eligible for a bursary or loan from the School’s Emergency Funds, the student must first have exhausted all other financial aid options. Specifically, they must have:
- applied for loans and bursaries from the appropriated organizations in their home province;
- taken the necessary steps to secure a job during vacation periods;
- have made every effort to obtain aid from family, personal contacts, as well as organizations from their home base who are in the position to provide such assistance.
