COVID-19 Emergency Student Response Fund
In response to the increased financial challenges facing students as a result of the COVID-19 crisis, BCIT has established the COVID-19 Emergency Student Response Fund to give them much-needed aid. Now more than ever, our students need financial support to help keep their dream of completing their studies at BCIT within reach.
We hope you will consider giving to this fund.
