Reviewed by G Paul · verified April 30, 2026
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual award supporting Indigenous students with financial need in post-secondary studies.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact T.E. Investment Counsel 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 attending a post-secondary institution and can show that you have a financial need for extra funding. 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, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask T.E. Investment Counsel how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask T.E. Investment Counsel 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 T.E. Investment Counsel whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
Read the official award page end-to-end. Confirm you meet every requirement before you start.
Double-check every field, save a copy, and submit at least 24 hours early.
The biggest mistake is providing a vague statement about needing money.
Winners instead provide a clear, documented breakdown of their expenses versus income to prove their financial gap.
List your specific costs to show exactly why this funding is needed.
The biggest mistake is using a generic character reference.
Winners instead secure letters from mentors or professors who can speak to their academic persistence despite financial hurdles.
Ask your referee to highlight your resilience.
