CIBC – Mount Allison Indigenous Student Bursaries

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual bursary for full-time Indigenous students in their 2nd, 3rd, or 4th year at Mount Allison University.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Mount Allison University 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 currently in your second, third, or fourth year of undergraduate studies who needs financial support to continue your education. You have three different deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — before you start the application, check Mount Allison University's program page or call their office to confirm when you will hear back. Selection criteria aren't published in detail, though the university focuses mainly on your financial need. They may also look at your grades and how you contribute to your community. Ask Mount Allison University how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Mount Allison University 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. These awards are distributed annually and may be renewed if you meet the requirements and reapply. Renewal conditions aren't listed in detail — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Mount Allison University exactly what you need to maintain to stay eligible.
