About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a scholarship supporting Indigenous students in architecture, interior design, or building technology.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Architecture49 to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you identify as Indigenous and are pursuing a career in the design and delivery of built environments. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through the Indspire portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Architecture49 how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Architecture49 during your application how the money will reach you — some awards pay students directly, others apply funds to tuition. Confirm this so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Architecture49 whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
