About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for funding if you are an Indigenous student in your 3rd or 4th year of a business-related undergraduate program in the Greater Toronto Area.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact CI Financial Future Leaders Award to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a scholarship, 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 pursuing a career in business and currently studying in the Greater Toronto Area. You have three different deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 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 CI Financial Future Leaders Award how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask CI Financial Future Leaders Award 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 CI Financial Future Leaders Award whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
