EACOM Timber Corporation Indigenous Bursary

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an Indigenous bursary available to students from Ontario, Quebec, or EACOM's partner communities.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact EACOM Timber Corporation 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 Ontario, Quebec, or one of EACOM's partner communities who has shown a strong commitment to helping your community grow. 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 a phone call. Selection criteria aren't published — ask EACOM Timber Corporation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask EACOM Timber Corporation 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 EACOM Timber Corporation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
