Doris Stenbraten Scholarship

YAEP is pleased to offer several scholarship opportunities for recent Yukon graduates. These scholarship amounts will be sent to the registrar of the institution of the successful candidates.

The recipient of these scholarships will be determined by the Scholarship Selection Committee based on the criteria listed below.

1. Applicants must already be accepted to a formal post-secondary program that will lead to the granting of a trades ticket, diploma, or degree.
2. Applicants need only apply once to qualify for all YAEP scholarships they are eligible for.
3. Applicants are only eligible to win one YAEP scholarship per year. Applicants will be screened for the Doris Stenbraten Scholarship first, then the Mary Gartside Scholarship, then the Elijah Smith Scholarship, and finally the YAEP 50th Scholarships.
4. Regardless of an applicant's possible post-secondary academic achievements or credits earned to date, it will only be the applicant's grade 12 marks on a Yukon high school transcript that will be considered (high school graduation within last 5 years) for the academic portion of the scoring.
5. Extra-curricular activities that do not have contact information for the leader/coach/mentor of the program will not be considered in scoring.
6. In the unlikely event of candidates having equal scores, the names of the tied candidates will be placed in a container and the winner will be drawn randomly.
