MEMORANDUM

To: Senate

From: Stephen T. Easton, Chair

Senate Policy Committee on cholarships, Awards and Bursaries

Re: Annual Report (SPCSAB Reference SPCSAB 06-07)

Date: 16 November 2006

I am pleased to submit the Annual Report of the Senate Policy Committee on Scholarships,

Awards and Bursaries (SPCSAB) for the fiscal year 2005-2006.

Overview

SPCSAB is the committee charged by Senate with setting policy for the administration of

awards, student scholarships, bursaries and other forms of financial aid at SFU. It should be

noted that this is primarily for internal awards. Three other Senate committees, namely SUAAC

. ?

(Senate Undergraduate Awards Adjudication Committee), SGAAC (Senate Graduate Awards

Adjudication Committee) and SCUH (Senate Committee on University Honors) adjudicate

financial awards to students where adjudication is needed. Financial Assistance, a unit within

Student Services, processes bursary applications.

For the 2005-06 period, undergraduate entrance scholarship funding rose sharply to $3.5 from

$2.55 million in 2005-06 as total awards increased from

544

to 633 primarily due to the increase

in Summit Entrance Scholarships and the

40th

Anniversary Entrance Awards. Some 1,207 Open

Undergraduate Scholarships were awarded, a fall of 4.7 percent. These scholarships totaled $1.35

million. The award cutoff for a cumulative GPA remained at 3.70, and the payment per credit

hour remained at $100.

Graduate funding in 2005-06 fell from $4.7 million in the previous year to $4.3 million of which

74 percent was awarded through Graduate Fellowships, 17 percent for President's Ph.D.

Research stipends, 6 percent for the C.D. Nelson Entrance Scholarships, and the remainder for

Special Graduate Entrance Scholarships.

During 2005-06, applications for undergraduate student bursaries increased by

5

percent while

assessed need declined by

5.9

percent. University funded bursaries decreased by

5

percent to

$4.35 million, but the share of assessed need receiving bursaries remained the same as last year

at 85 percent of assessed need. Graduate bursaries increased by 11 percent and brought the total

. ?

bursary budget to $4.85 million, a decrease of 8.3 percent over 2004-05. A special Access

Committee, established by the Board of Governors in Spring 2004, reviewed issues relating to

SPCSAB Annual Report 2005-06 1

---

the increasing undergraduate tuition fees and the effect this was having on students' ability to

attend university. The Access committee continued to provide advice to SPCSAB in

2005-06.

British Columbia Government Student Assistance programs increased the sum of student loans

and grants by 4.3 percent to

$44.5

million while the number of student loans and grants declined

by 2.9 percent to 15,135.

Simon Fraser University continued to fund the Work-Study Program with 507 awards costing

$537,000. This is the third year in which the University has funded these awards since the

Province discontinued them.

Other notes of interest:

• Students who participated in the SFU International Field School programs, Foreign

Exchange programs and International Co-op received 132 bursaries totaling $196,000.

• The Aboriginal Bursary Program targeted at aboriginal students in financial need made

24 awards totaling over $36,000.

• Total disbursements of Athletic awards increased slightly to $485,000, and the revised

recreation leadership awards totaled over $76,000.

Re: Open Undergraduate Scholarship 2004/05

Date: October 4, 2006

Fiscal Summary

The Open Undergraduate Scholarship program for the 2005/06 fiscal year continued be to

awarded at the CumGPA level of 3.700 (same CumCGPA since 1996). In Fall 2005, the basic

tuition fee increased by 2% from $142.30 per credit hour to $145.20 in addition to a 2% increase

to premium fee credit hour fees.

The actual number of students receiving the Open Scholarship decreased from the previous

year, with an overall decrease in the amount of open scholarship funding disbursed from the

previous year. For 2005/06, there were a total of 1,207 Open Scholarship recipients, resulting

in a 4% decrease in the number of Open Scholarship recipients over the previous fiscal year,

and a less than 1% change in the average dollar value of the Open Undergraduate Scholarship

disbursed over the previous fiscal.

The annual budget for the Open Undergraduate Scholarship program for the 2006/07 fiscal year

remained the same as 2004/05. Total disbursements over the three terms for 2005/06

amounted to $1,347,300.

Attached is a spreadsheet with an updated summary of the Open Undergraduate Scholarship

data.

If you have any questions regarding the Open Undergraduate Scholarship, please do not

hesitate to contact me.

Canada Study Grant for Female Doctoral Students (CSG-FD)

The federal government offers a grant program to support female doctoral students in specific programs. The goal of the

program is to encourage female students with financial need to continue studies to the doctoral level in fields that have an

under representation of females based on national statistics.

Commencing 2001/02 these grants were assessed as part of the B.C. Student Assistance Program application and a

separate application is not required. For those students who meet the criteria for a CSG-FD, the grants are automatically

calculated and the award replaces federal loan funding. In other words, students do not receive additional funding but

0 v

a portion of their debt (loan) converted to grant.

Athletic and Recreation Awards 2005-2006

Athletic Awards

Athletic awards are available to students who are members of varsity teams at Simon Fraser University

and are awarded primarily on the basis of Athletic merit, though some awards have an academic

achievement component. There are three categories of Athletic Awards: those funded through endowed

and annual donations, those funded by University operating funds, and those funded by money raised by

the individual teams to support their own athletes (Athletic Tuition Awards).

In 2005/06 1 annual award and 3 endowments were established.

B.C. Athletic Assistance Program

The B.C. Athletic Assistance Program (BCAAP) is funded by theprovincial government to support top

athletes in pursuing their education while maintaining their sport training. The funding level for Simon

Fraser University remained the same from 2001/02 to 2002/03. However, due to Canadian Interuniversity

Sport rules, some of the allocated funds could not be disbursed in 2002/03 so a portion of the funding

was disbursed in the summer semester 2003 and is counted in the 2003-2004 year.

Government Student Assistance 2005-2006

Domestic Canadian students, graduate and undergraduate, may apply through their home province to receive

funding assistance from the federal, provincial and territorial governments. Government assistance is a primary

source of funding for approximately 30% of Canadian post-secondary students. Students from the United States

may receive assistance through the U.S. Department of Education programs. The goal of all these programs is to

promote accessibility of post-secondary education among academically qualified students who do not have the

personal or family resources to meet the costs of education.

At Simon Fraser University approximately 24% of all students receive their primary funding through government

student assistance.

British Columbia Student Assistance Program (BCSAP)

The tables below report the number of BC Government assistance awards and the total dollars of assistance

received by Simon Fraser students from

1994/95

to the 2005/06 award year. The first two tables report numbers

for students who are considered residents of British Columbia and are receiving funding through the BC

government. The numbers indicate that Simon Fraser students received $1,936,745 more in government student

assistance through BC in 2005/06 compared to 2004/05. This increase is due in large part to an increase of $800

per semester in the maximum allowable loan award. Also contributing to changes in the last two years is an

increase to the living allowances for all students and parents with a corresponding decrease in the expected

contribution from students. According to the government's statistics Simon Fraser remained the second largest

user of the assistance programs for the fifth year in a row.

In 2004/05 the BC Grant and Canada Millennium Scholarship Foundation Bursary were eliminated from the

BCSAP program. These changes affected undergraduate students and are reflected in the BC/Federal Grant

column in the table below. Students who would have previously been eligible for these grants received BC loans

instead. However, to offset the increase in loan values, the BC Government, in partnership with the Canada

Millennium Scholarship Foundation, introduced the BC Loan Reduction Program. Under the new program

eligible students who successfully complete each year's studies will have their BC Student Loan reduced. The

amount of reduction will vary according to the BC Loan awarded. We do not receive reports on the number of our

students who receive these grants. The grant programs that remained unchanged were the Canada Study Grant for

Students with Dependants, Canada Study Grant for High-Need Students with Permanent Disabilities, and Canada

Study Grant for Female Doctoral Students (see report on Part-Time Assistance and Canada Study Grants)

Out of Province and United States Student Loans

The tables below report students who are receiving finding through other Canadian provinces or

territories and from the United States. Not all provinces advise the postsecondary institutions of

assistance granted to students, particularly grant awards.

U.S. students appear to be requesting maximum values on all government loan programs available to

them. The number of awards includes subsidized and unsubsidized government loans, private loans, and

parental loans. US students receive separate disbursements in each semester of their loan period and an

increasing number of students are accessing private loans to supplement their government loans.
