About this award

You can receive a total of $250.00. This is a prize, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a second-year student in the Interior Design Technology program who excels in design projects. The deadline is February 12, 2027. Since you are automatically considered through your General Application, ask NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) how and when they notify the winning team. A panel of judges uses a competition rubric and scoring sheet to pick the winner. The award goes to the top team (teams of 2-4) that earns the top score in the design project for course DSGN2220: Shaping Interior Spaces. 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 a second year student enrolled in the Interior Design Technology program. To win, your team (consisting of 2-4 members) must achieve the top score in the design project for course DSGN2220: Shaping Interior Spaces.

Tips for applying

Design ProjectAvoid focusing only on the aesthetic of your project. Instead, ensure your work strictly follows the competition rubric and scoring sheet provided in class. Review the rubric with your team before submitting.
SupportAvoid working in isolation. Instead, coordinate closely with your 2-4 team members to ensure every part of the project is cohesive. Set a internal deadline for your team to review the final draft.
StrategyAvoid forgetting your administrative steps. Instead, make sure you have submitted a completed General Application through the NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) awards portal. Check your portal status to ensure your application is active.
RealismAvoid assuming the award is guaranteed based on grades alone. Instead, remember that this is a competition judged by a panel based on a specific project score. Focus your energy on the DSGN2220 project requirements.
