About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual bursary supporting Indigenous students with demonstrated financial need.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Manuel and Cheryl Buchwald 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 financial help to afford your post-secondary education. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Manuel and Cheryl Buchwald how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Manuel and Cheryl Buchwald 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 Manuel and Cheryl Buchwald whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Financial Need
The biggest mistake is providing a vague statement about needing money.
Strategy
Winners instead provide a clear budget showing exactly where their funding gaps are and how this bursary fills those holes.
Support
The biggest mistake is using a generic reference letter.
Strategy
Winners instead ask their referees to provide specific examples of their community involvement and leadership roles.
Strategy
The biggest mistake is applying only once.
Strategy
Since this is distributed annually and has three separate deadlines, you should track your financial needs across the school year and apply during the window that best matches your gap.
