The Taggart Award for Algonquin Students

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for funding if you are an Algonquin student attending a post-secondary program in Canada.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Algonquins of Ontario | The Taggart Group 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 have Algonquin heritage and belong to one of the 10 communities represented by the AOO (Algonquins of Ontario — the organization representing Algonquin people in their journey of reconciliation and self-sufficiency). You have three 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 Algonquins of Ontario | The Taggart Group how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Algonquins of Ontario | The Taggart Group 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 Algonquins of Ontario | The Taggart Group whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
