Vermilion Energy Indigenous Student Award

About this award

Apply by February 1, August 1, or November 1 for funding available to Indigenous students attending any post-secondary or skilled trades program across Canada.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Vermilion Energy Inc. 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 are an Indigenous student pursuing higher education or specialized skills training. You have three application windows each year with deadlines on February 1, August 1, and November 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through the Indspire portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Vermilion Energy Inc. how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Vermilion Energy Inc. 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 Vermilion Energy Inc. whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
