Calgary Black Chambers Nutrien Community Scholarship

About this award

Get $7,000 for your first year of agriculture or engineering studies if you are a Black Canadian citizen graduating Grade 12 in the Calgary area — apply by June 1, 2026.

You can receive one award valued at $7,000. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. The money is applied directly to your tuition. This is for you if you are a Black Canadian student who is passionate about agriculture or engineering and has spent time volunteering in your community. You must apply by June 1, 2026. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through the application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Calgary Foundation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. The money is sent directly to your school to pay for your tuition. Confirm with Calgary Foundation during your application if there are any other specific payment steps you need to follow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Calgary Foundation whether it's a one-time award or if you can apply again.
