About this award

You will receive $340.00. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a musician starting your university journey with a strong sense of community citizenship and academic strength. You must apply by January 31, 2027. When you apply, ask Lakehead University how and when you will hear back — whether it is through email, the portal, or a phone call. The Department of Music selects the winner based on your auditions and interviews. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Lakehead University how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Lakehead University 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 Lakehead University whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be entering your first year in the Honours Bachelor of Arts (Music) or Honours Bachelor of Music program at Lakehead University. A preference is given to students from Northwestern Ontario.

Tips for applying

AuditionAvoid waiting until the deadline to organize your performance. Instead, contact the Department of Music in the fall to register for your audition. This ensures you have a confirmed slot.
StrategyAvoid ignoring the general application. Instead, complete the Lakehead University General Application thoroughly, as you will be automatically considered for this award based on that submission.
RealismAvoid treating this as a guaranteed fund due to the specialized nature of the music department's review. Instead, view this as a helpful supplement to your other funding while focusing on your audition performance.
