FUNDING

Our Admission Registrar will be happy to assist you to identify sources of funding for you to complete one of our programs. A wide variety of repayable loans, as well as scholarships and bursaries that do not need to be repaid are available from different organizations.

Please review the information at the websites listed below to find the funding programs for which you are eligible. If the financial assistance available is not enough to meet your needs, you may also be eligible for a Frida Paulina Norgren and Esther Maria Plantare Entrance Memorial Bursary.

Frida Paulina Norgren and Esther Maria Plantare, the grandmothers of Kosmetae's founder and President, Kristina Norgren, were instrumental in introducing education to the largely rural town of Överboda, Sweden. As the first and third school teachers of their small northern town, both women were highly community minded and concerned with both the educational needs and the social well being of those around them. It is in the spirit of illuminating young minds that Kosmetae Academy is pleased to offer the Frida Paulina Norgren and Esther Maria Plantare Entrance Memorial Bursaries.

The bursary is a non-repayable award that is designed to help fill unmet need which is the difference between one's assessed financial need and available government assistance.
