D&R Directional Indigenous Student Bursaries

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual bursary for Indigenous students from Treaty areas 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, and 10.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact D R Directional 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 a Treaty area who needs financial help to stay in 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, a portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask D R Directional how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask D R Directional 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 D R Directional whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
