2020’s creditcardGenius scholarship winner

Congratulations to Ariane Freynet-Gagné, a 5th year student at the University of Manitoba. She’s in her final year of a Bachelor of Arts with Honours in Psychology. Next year, she hopes to pursue graduate studies in Community Psychology, with a focus on resilience in the face of environmental catastrophe.

We saw an interesting combination of interests in Ariane that helped her stand out from the crowd. Her passion for community harmony, coupled with her keen enthusiasm for ecological responsibility, makes for a promising future. This is all topped off with her extraordinary admiration for her mother, which shined through in her submission.

For these reasons, Ariane inspired the creditcardGenius team to choose her as the 2020 scholarship recipient.

Who will be the 2021 scholarship recipient?

We’d also like to thank each and every one of our scholarship entrants for this year. We read a lot of inspiring, heartwarming, and even heartbreaking stories while searching through your submissions. We wish you the best of luck in your future, both in your studies and beyond.

Didn’t meet the deadline this year? Want to give it another go?

Don’t worry – we’ll be posting the 2021 creditcardGenius $2,000 scholarship very soon. Please stay tuned.
