Athletics
Discipline – Perseverance – Energy – Accountability – Humility – Participation – Passion
These words describe many of the necessary characteristics in a university student, but no where are they more relevant than with Kwantlen's student athletes. Participating in university athletics adds a completely unique layer of experience to one's post secondary education. Many of the skills required to succeed in sport are also relevant to most professions. In order to best assist our student we must increase the number and value of financial awards available to athletes at Kwantlen.

Visual Arts — Faculty of Fine Arts
With the completion of the Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) degree program at Kwantlen the department is now setting its sights on retaining and attracting top artists to continue their studies at Kwantlen. Fine Arts students often have diverse needs and face many financial barriers to attaining post secondary education. We continue to see a high ratio of first generation post secondary students. This is both an incredible opportunity and challenge; we are inspired by these students and their goals and at the same time aware of their additional needs in order to achieve success. Through scholarships, awards and bursaries Kwantlen is able to show our commitment to our students and their artistic futures by providing financial assistance and recognition for outstanding performance in the Bachelor of Fine Arts Program.
This recognition does not go unnoticed by the students. Students continually acknowledge the motivation and confidence these awards instill. Further to that, there is often the promise of even greater performance and achievement in the future as a result of such support from their institution and community. Offering awards to students in Fine Arts makes a strong statement about one's commitment to education and is an investment in the inspirational minds of the future.
