Peninsula Co-op Student Awards Program

Peninsula Co-op is proud to support the students in our community with post secondary scholarship opportunities.

For the last 30 years we have been supporting local students through our Student Awards Program. As our company has grown over the years, we have continuously added to our Program which this year alone will award 21 scholarships, combining for a total of $22,000.

Students should apply directly to the University of Victoria, Camosun College, Vancouver Island University, North Island College and Royal Roads University. We have made scholarships specific to these establishments because they are in our trading area.

The Peninsula Co-op Educational Scholarships provide opportunities to students pursuing post-secondary education off Vancouver Island. This was done to improve the quality of opportunities available to our members and their families.

Application information and award requirements can be found at the links below.
