Amiskusees: Semaganis Worme Family Foundation Bursaries
About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary to help cover your law education costs at the University of Saskatchewan. Apply through Indspire's central Building Brighter Futures program — one application covers all sponsor pools.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Amiskusees: Semaganis Worme Family Foundation to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student pursuing a law degree and need extra financial support to manage your education costs. You have three potential deadlines to apply: 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 Amiskusees: Semaganis Worme Family Foundation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. They distribute three (3) bursaries to LL.M. (Master of Laws) students and one (1) bursary to a JD (Juris Doctor) student. Ask Amiskusees: Semaganis Worme Family Foundation 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 Amiskusees: Semaganis Worme Family Foundation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain. How to apply: This funding is administered through Indspire's Building Brighter Futures Bursaries & Scholarships program. Students complete one central application that's evaluated against all 360+ of Indspire's funding pools (including this one) — you don't apply to the sponsor directly. The Apply button on this page routes to Indspire's portal automatically. For the full program description, all three application deadlines, and detailed eligibility, see Indspire Building Brighter Futures Bursaries & Scholarships on FundMyCourse.

The biggest mistake is providing a vague statement about needing money.
Winners instead provide a clear budget showing exactly where their funding gaps are and how this bursary fills those holes.
The biggest mistake is using a general character reference.
Winners instead secure letters from professors or mentors who can specifically vouch for their academic persistence despite financial hurdles.
The biggest mistake is waiting until the final deadline.
Since there are three windows (August 1, November 1, and February 1), apply during the earliest one that fits your enrollment status to get your funds sooner.
