About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary supporting Indigenous students in mental health services programs across Canada.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Michel Doreen Bell Bursary 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 dedicated to improving mental health services in your community. You can apply by August 1, November 1, or 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 beyond the focus on financial need, community contribution, and academic merit — ask Michel Doreen Bell Bursary how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Michel Doreen Bell Bursary 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 Michel Doreen Bell Bursary whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
