Shared Value Solutions Award for Indigenous Students

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for funding to support your post-secondary studies in environment, planning, or community development.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Shared Value Solutions 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 pursuing a career in protecting the land, managing natural resources, or developing sustainable communities. You can apply by August 1, November 1, or 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 beyond the focus on financial need, community contribution, and academic merit — ask Shared Value Solutions how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Shared Value Solutions 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 Shared Value Solutions whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
