  1. Employment verification, is that just to let you know what my work status is, if I am fulltime/partime or casual, and how many days a week, I will work?
    Also, when will the Fall 2019 application be scheduled to come out, so i can come back and download it?

    1. Hello, I have updated our Sponsorship Application forms for the upcoming Fall 2019 academic term. Employment confirmation is required for both full time or part time students. It informs SLPS the place of employment and number of hours students are employed. Please give me a call and we can chat about other application procedures. Happy New Year.

  2. I tried looking for an email address to inquire about program eligibility. In Calgary at the Alberta College of Art + Design, for the BFA program my requirements are to complete the Artstream program before I start my First Year Studies. Artstream is the first step in obtaining my Bachelor’s degree in Fine Arts and is in partnership with Bow Valley College & the Alberta College of Art + Design. So my question is, is the Artstream program eligible for sponsorship? It is an entrance program. I am asking now before I think about submitting my application for sponsorship. If you can email me, I would greatly appreciate it.

    1. Hello, both Bow Valley College and the Alberta College of Art and Design are institutions that are eligible for sponsorship. As for the program that you are interested in requires completion of Grade 12 as a mandatory entrance/admission requirement for all students, including mature student and is at least one year in lenght. I would ask that you call me to discuss personal eligibilty with you as this may take some time (sooner the better to confirm). Please review pages 7 & 8 in our Student Policy Manual that can be veiwed or downloaded from our Sponsorship Procedures page. Betty Ann Cardinal, Student Advisor, bettyanncardinal@saddlelake.ca / 780-726-7609. Happy New Year. Bye for now
