About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an award supporting Indigenous students in environmental management, planning, and land sciences.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Avision Planning, EnCompass Environmental, and erevno to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a scholarship, 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 protecting the land and environment through professional study. You can apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Avision Planning, EnCompass Environmental, and erevno how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Avision Planning, EnCompass Environmental, and erevno 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 Avision Planning, EnCompass Environmental, and erevno whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
