Bursary Information

We are proud to offer our students the opportunity to apply for full or partial bursaries to go towards their NSJWE fee and are able to offer a number of bursaries every year. We understand that finances can be an issue–if you are unable to provide your fees, please apply for the Bursary Program or contact admin@nsjwe.ca. No student will be turned away because they can’t afford the membership fees.

The Nova Scotia Junior Wind Ensemble is proud to offer bursary opportunities for students who audition for the ensemble. Students must submit their bursary application, and reference letter with their application into the ensemble. All forms must be received by May 15, 2024.
