Legal
Terms of Use
The rules for using Canadian Scholarship Helper. Plain-language summary first; full legal text below.
- Canadian Scholarship Helper is an information service. We surface scholarships you may qualify for — we do not guarantee any award and we do not process applications.
- You are responsible for verifying every scholarship's current eligibility, deadline, and award amount with the official provider before applying.
- The site is for personal, non-commercial use. Don't scrape it, don't republish the database, don't impersonate a provider.
- We do our best to keep the database accurate, but the official provider's information always wins if there is a difference.
- The free Student Toolkit is provided as-is. Toolkit Plus is a one-time CAD $19 purchase processed through Stripe.
The full legal text is below. If anything in the summary and the full text appear to conflict, the full text governs.
