The Kathryn Huget Leadership Award

About this award

Get approximately $1,500 for your Master's or PhD studies in Canada — apply by June 15, 2026.

You can receive one award valued at approximately $1,500. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a graduate student dedicated to improving leadership in business and advancing the role of women in the workplace. You must apply by June 15, 2026. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through an application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Calgary Foundation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. The money is applied directly to your tuition. Confirm with Calgary Foundation during your application if there are any other specific payment steps you need to follow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Calgary Foundation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
