Nutrien Bursary for Indigenous Students

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for one of five bursaries supporting Indigenous students in engineering.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Nutrien 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 in Canada pursuing an engineering degree and need financial help to cover your education costs. You have three different 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, phone, or a portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Nutrien how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. There are 5 awards available for students in the engineering fields listed in the eligibility section. Ask Nutrien 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 Nutrien whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
