by Bobby NockFebruary 16, 2022

The province says about 11-thousand post-secondary students are getting a one-time COVID-19 grant of $875.

It says students who get Nova Scotia Student Assistance qualify for the grant.

They also have to be a Nova Scotia resident.

The government says students don’t have to apply for the grant and the money will be automatically deposited into their bank accounts in March.
