Enriched Educational Opportunities: Need-based Bursary Program (for Faculty of Arts Internships)

Enriched Educational Opportunities (EEOs) are high-quality, off-campus experiential opportunities officially recognized by a Faculty. The EEO Need-Based Bursaries, administered by the Scholarships & Student Aid Office, are non-repayable forms of financial assistance based on demonstrated financial need, to help undergraduate students with the additional costs associated with the extra opportunities.

The Culver Centre: AIO can only endorse activities that meet our definition of an internship. Within the Faculty of Arts, no other types of activities can be endorsed for an EEO Bursary.

How to Apply for an EEO Need-Based Bursary (for Faculty of Arts Internships)

  1. Obtain a Faculty of Arts Internship Endorsement Letter confirming the experience will appear on Student Experience Record (SER)

    • Follow the steps outlined here: Steps to have the internship recognized on the SER (before the start of your internship)

      • The Faculty of Arts Internship Office will determine which opportunities are eligible to be recognized as an internship on the SER based on the internship definition and eligibility criteria listed on this page

      • Important note: The Faculty of Arts cannot grant approval after your internship has started. The SER steps must be completed well in advance of your internship start date. You may apply to the EEO Need-Based Bursary at any time during the academic year. Processing times usually take up to two weeks.

  2. If your request is approved, a signed Faculty of Arts Internship Endorsement Letter will be sent to your McGill email.
