Wells Fargo Indigenous Student Award

About this award

Three annual awards are available for Indigenous students at select universities—apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Wells Fargo to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a scholarship, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student with any Indigenous affiliation who is managing financial challenges while pursuing your education. 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 — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Wells Fargo how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. They distribute the award to three students annually. Ask Wells Fargo 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 Wells Fargo whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
