Our graduates always tell us their time at Marianopolis had a profound influence on their personal and professional lives, whether it be from making life-long friendships to discovering new passions and interests.

Members of our community often wish to establish scholarships that honour the faculty and staff who inspired them, or highlight a field of study that is particularly important to them.

The Marianopolis Millennium Foundation – the registered charity that provides funds for the College’s bursaries and scholarships – is happy to highlight the generous donations from alumni, parents and friends which help make our financial support to students among the most generous in the Quebec college network.

If you are interested in finding out more about establishing a scholarship or bursary to support students and honour a member of the Marianopolis community or someone dear to you, please contact: foundation@marianopolis.edu.
