Frontier Lithium Next Generation Education Bursary

About this award

$5,000 bursaries are available for members of seven specific First Nations communities attending any post-secondary program in Canada — apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1.

You can receive a $5,000 bursary. There is a total of $35,000 in bursaries available each year, with $5,000 bursaries awarded annually to one member from each of the seven eligible communities. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are a member of one of the seven listed First Nations communities and are pursuing higher education to become a future leader. You have three 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 will hear back via email, phone, or a portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Frontier Lithium how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Frontier Lithium 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 are counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Frontier Lithium whether it is a one-time award or renewable and what you need to maintain.
