About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary supporting Indigenous students attending any post-secondary institution across Canada.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Gloria Baylis Foundation 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 with any Indigenous affiliation who is pursuing a post-secondary education. 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, phone, or through an application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Gloria Baylis Foundation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Gloria Baylis Foundation 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 Gloria Baylis Foundation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
