Arup’s Engineering Indigenous Student Scholarship

About this award

Get a scholarship and a potential paid internship at one of three Canadian offices — apply by August 1 or November 1.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact ARUP Canada 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 are an Indigenous student pursuing a career in the built environment, such as engineering or urban planning. You have two deadlines to meet: August 1 and November 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — when you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back via email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask ARUP Canada how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask ARUP Canada 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 ARUP Canada whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
