Currently, the government gives us enough money annually for twenty-five $5,000 scholarships for students enrolled in a university program and pursuing their studies in French. The scholarships are awarded in their first year of university. It's well known that students who start out in French tend to continue the rest of their university education in French. The scholarship represents an important incentive. And by working and being involved in the community, they get to see just how useful their studying in French is.
