Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a law school bursary supporting Indigenous students across Canada.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Koskie Minsky 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 a First Nation, Inuit or Métis student pursuing a legal education. You have three different deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — before you start the application, check Koskie Minsky's program page or call their office to confirm when you will hear back. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Koskie Minsky how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Koskie Minsky 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 Koskie Minsky whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
Read the official award page end-to-end. Confirm you meet every requirement before you start.
Double-check every field, save a copy, and submit at least 24 hours early.
The biggest mistake is listing your achievements without connecting them to your heritage.
Winners instead explain how their Indigenous identity drives their desire to study law.
Describe the specific impact you want to have on your community through your legal career.
The biggest mistake is using generic academic references who only know your grades.
Winners instead use mentors or community leaders who can vouch for your character and leadership.
Provide a referee who has seen you advocate for others.
