Scholarships and awards

UNB undergraduate and graduate awards and scholarships are automatically applied as a credit to the student's account.

• The value of the scholarship is equally split for both the Fall and Winter term of the applicable academic year. Students with a credit on their account after tuition and fees have been paid in full, can request a refund, or the funds can remain on the account to be applied against the balance for future terms. **Note that scholarships are awarded and maintained based on fulltime registration requirements, and for this reason, refunds cannot be issued until after the add/drop date for the term the award has been issued.

• Graduate students receiving the Graduate Academic Assistantship (GAA) or the Graduate Research Assistantship (GRA), receive these funds on a bi-weekly basis via the payroll system. Tuition and fees are automatically deducted from these funds, also on on a bi-weekly basis, and the account is noted as being paid with funding. 

• If the GAA and/or GRA funds do not fully cover the term fees, the student would be contacted by the Graduate Administrator to advise them of the balance owing, and the payment options.
