About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for funding available to First Nation, Inuit, and Métis students pursuing law degrees in 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 an Indigenous student dedicated to pursuing a career in the legal profession. You have three application 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 the Indspire portal. 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.
