Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary to help cover your post-secondary education costs if you have Indigenous affiliation and financial need.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Indspire (the national Indigenous education organization) 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 who needs extra financial support to manage the costs of your schooling. 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 Indspire how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Indspire 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 Indspire 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 providing a vague statement about needing money.
Winners instead provide a clear breakdown of their tuition gaps and living expenses.
List your specific monthly shortfall to prove your need.
The biggest mistake is using a generic character reference.
Winners instead use referees who can speak to their resilience and commitment to their community.
Ask a mentor or elder to highlight your growth.
