About this award
You can receive a $1,500.00 grant. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are an Aboriginal student currently in the third period of any apprenticeship program. You must apply by June 7, 2027. When you apply, ask NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through the portal. NAIT's official page says how this award is decided (see Who qualifies). Ask NAIT how many students usually qualify, so you can judge your odds. Ask NAIT 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 NAIT whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
Who qualifies
You must be an Aboriginal student enrolled in the third period of any apprenticeship program. To qualify, you must show demonstrated financial need and have satisfactory academic achievement. You will only be considered for the intake you attend NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology).
