La Fondation Boursiers Loran a convié 76 finissants (voir la liste ci-dessous) du secondaire et du cégep aux sélections nationales qui auront lieu à Toronto le 6 et 7 février. Ces finalistes figurent parmi le top 2% des 3 800 candidatures et ont été sélectionnés en fonction de trois critères de sélection : la détermination, l’engagement envers la communauté et le potentiel de leadership.
À la suite des sélections nationales, la fondation sélectionnera 30 boursiers Loran. Chaque boursier Loran recevra une bourse d’études d’une valeur à la hauteur de 100 000 $ sur quatre ans, tenable à l’une de 25 universités participantes. Les finalistes qui ne sont pas sélectionnés comme boursiers sont admissibles à recevoir une bourse de 3 000 $.
À l’entame de sa 26e année d’existence, la Fondation Boursiers Loran a remis plus de 26 millions $ aux étudiants sous forme de bourses d’études de premier cycle. La fondation compte parmi ses anciens boursiers de nombreux entrepreneurs et le chef d’une société ouverte, les directeurs généraux des organismes caritatifs nationaux et locaux, six assistants à la Cour suprême du Canada et 15 boursiers Rhodes.
