About this award

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Indigeno Travel 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 Nations student from or studying in Winnipeg who is passionate about the travel and tourism industry. 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 Indigeno Travel how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Indigeno Travel 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 Indigeno Travel whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

To qualify, you must be First Nations. You must also be studying in, or have your home community in, Winnipeg, MB. This award is open to you regardless of your level of study, as long as you are enrolled in travel and tourism related programs.
