Deadlines fall on August 1, November 1 and February 1 for a bursary supporting Indigenous students attending post-secondary institutions across Canada.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Mejuri Inc. 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 identifies as female or non-binary, though all Indigenous students are welcome to apply. 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, phone, or through the application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Mejuri Inc. how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Mejuri Inc. 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 Mejuri Inc. whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
You must be an Indigenous student with any Indigenous affiliation attending a post-secondary institution across Canada. You can be in any program of study at any level of study. While this award is open to all Indigenous students, first preference will be given to female and/or non-binary students. The main factor for selection is demonstrated financial need, but the committee may also look at your academic merit, performance, and how you contribute to your community.
