About this award

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Nieuport Aviation 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 from Toronto, the Greater Toronto area, or Ontario who is pursuing a career in the travel and transport sectors. 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 Nieuport Aviation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Nieuport Aviation 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 Nieuport Aviation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You qualify if you have any Indigenous affiliation and are from Toronto, the Greater Toronto area, or Ontario. You must be attending a post-secondary institution across Canada, which includes a college, university, technical college, or apprenticeship program. Your program of study must be in travel, transportation, aviation, tourism, or hospitality. While you can be at any level of study, you must show demonstrated financial need for help with your education costs. The reviewers may also look at your academic merit, your performance in school, and how you have contributed to your community.
