The Andrew Rattee Bursary for Indigenous Students

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary supporting Indigenous students in any university program across Canada.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact The Rattee Family 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 a First Nation, Inuit, or Métis student who wants to use your university education to eventually give back to your community. You can apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask The Rattee Family how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask The Rattee Family 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 The Rattee Family whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
