About this award

Deadlines fall on August 1, November 1 and February 1 for Indigenous students pursuing any level of post-secondary study in business, tech, or STEM.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact KPMG to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As these are scholarships, the money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you identify as Indigenous and are pursuing a post-secondary education to build your professional skills. Deadlines come around three times a year on August 1, November 1 and February 1, so aim for whichever one is next. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, a portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask KPMG how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask KPMG 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 KPMG whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
