About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual bursary supporting Indigenous students from New Brunswick attending NBCC.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact New Brunswick Community College (NBCC) 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 from New Brunswick who needs extra financial help to afford your education. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, 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 New Brunswick Community College how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask New Brunswick Community College 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 New Brunswick Community College whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
