Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual award to help cover your education costs if you are an Indigenous student from Saugeen, Nawash, or Métis Nation Region 7.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Bruce Power to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student from Saugeen, Nawash, or the Métis Nation of Ontario Region 7 who needs extra financial help to pay for school. 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 a portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Bruce Power how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Bruce Power 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 Bruce Power whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
Read the official award page end-to-end. Confirm you meet every requirement before you start.
Double-check every field, save a copy, and submit at least 24 hours early.
The biggest mistake is providing a vague statement about needing money.
Winners instead provide a clear breakdown of their tuition gaps and living expenses.
List your specific monthly shortfall to prove your need.
The biggest mistake is using a generic character reference.
Winners instead use a mentor or community leader who can speak specifically to their Indigenous heritage and academic goals.
Get a letter that confirms your ties to Saugeen, Nawash, or Region 7.
