Scotiabank’s $30,000 Funds Your Future Contest is Back

Hey, students, are you ready for a chance to win $30,000 to help fund your education? Scotiabank is back with their popular Funds Your Future contest, offering not one but two grand prizes of $30,000 CAD each. Whether you’re a Canadian citizen, a permanent resident, or an international student, this contest could be your ticket to financial relief.

What’s Up for Grabs?

Each of the two grand prizes includes a carefully curated financial package designed to support your academic journey:

• $10,000 deposited into a Scotiabank Student Banking Advantage® Plan.
• A 1-year non-redeemable GIC (Guaranteed Investment Certificate) for $10,000.
• A 2-year non-redeemable GIC for $10,000.

In total, that’s a whopping $30,000 to support your future goals, helping you pay for tuition, living expenses, or other academic needs.

Who Can Enter?

Here’s the exciting part—this contest is open to two main groups:

1. Canadian Citizens or Permanent Residents enrolled in a Canadian post-secondary institution.
2. International Students who are also enrolled in a Canadian post-secondary institution.

You just need to be 17 years or older by the time of entry and enrolled (or planning to enroll) in a Canadian post-secondary institution by January 31st, 2025. Even better, you can enter regardless of your current relationship with Scotiabank.
