Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Mr. Speaker, the Millennium Scholarship is up to $3,000. There are other scholarships that students may qualify for, depending on their marks. As undergrads, they are not as significant as they are for the graduate amounts, but there are opportunities for private scholarships, as well. The best investment a person can make is in themselves, and in education. So our Student Financial Assistance Program is just that, an assistance program. It was never intended to provide full support. We expect that everybody who comes into the program will bring something from themselves or their family to the table as well, but we would encourage people to discuss with the local ECE office what options are available, what supports are out there, and perhaps find some guidance to other support. Thank you.
