Toyota Canada Foundation Indigenous Bursaries in Automotive Technology

About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary supporting Indigenous students in two-year automotive programs across Canada.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Toyota Canada Foundation 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. You can receive this funding during both years of your two-year program as long as you continue to be enrolled. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student pursuing a career in automotive technology. 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 an application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Toyota Canada Foundation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Toyota Canada Foundation 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. To keep this funding for the second year of your studies, you must continue to be enrolled in your program. Renewal conditions aren't listed beyond this enrollment requirement — confirm with Toyota Canada Foundation if there are GPA or other standards you need to maintain.
