Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual award supporting Indigenous students in any post-secondary program across Canada.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Parachute Executive Coaching 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 identify as Indigenous and are preparing to take on leadership roles in your community or professional field. You have three different deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. 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 Parachute Executive Coaching how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Parachute Executive Coaching 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 Parachute Executive Coaching 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 listing your titles without explaining your impact.
Winners instead describe exactly how they led a team or helped others grow.
Give a specific example of a project you managed or a community initiative you started.
The biggest mistake is providing a generic character reference.
Winners instead use referees who can speak to their leadership potential and cultural connection.
Ask a mentor or community elder to write about your specific strengths as a future leader.
