About this award
Get financial support for your healthcare or general science studies if you are an Indigenous student based in Montreal or Markham — apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact AbbVie Corporation to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student living in Montreal or Markham who is pursuing a career in health or science and needs help covering your education costs. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — before you start the application, check AbbVie Corporation's program page or call their office to confirm when you will hear back. Selection criteria aren't published beyond the focus on financial need, community involvement, and academic merit — ask AbbVie Corporation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask AbbVie Corporation 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 AbbVie Corporation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
