Alumni Services

Being an NYA Alumni doesn’t stop when you are done programs! You are part of the NYA family, and we stay in contact with a lot of our Alumni throughout their lives. We often share unique opportunities and other programs with Alumni, and we always continue to develop leadership opportunities for Alumni.

Alumni Bursary

Each year NYA offers a number of $500 bursaries to deserving Alumni who are pursuing full-time post-secondary education. Since this initiative began in 2011, NYA has contributed bursaries to 76 Alumni to assist with the financial burden of attending a college or university program, and to reward their ambition and commitment to education and personal success.
