LACF Indigenous Scholarship in Landscape Architecture

About this award

Apply by November 1 or February 1 for an annual award for Indigenous students in accredited landscape architecture programs.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Landscape Architecture Canada Foundation (LACF — the national charitable organization that supports landscape architecture research and students) to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. This is for you if you identify as Indigenous and are pursuing a career in shaping resilient and equitable landscapes through professional study. You have two deadlines to choose from: November 1 and February 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — when you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back via email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask LACF how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask LACF 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 LACF whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
