Student Financial Assistance Overview
The Department of Education, Culture and Employment provides financial assistance to eligible Northwest Territories (NWT) residents to assist with postsecondary education-related expenses. The Department and the SFA Program value transparency, which means being open about the policies, guidelines and regulations that govern both ECE and SFA.
These documents are made available to the public in order to provide a foundation for fair and equal treatment for all SFA recipients and to help NWT residents navigate through the process of receiving SFA.
