About this award

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Amrize 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. You may also have the opportunity for a summer internship at Amrize if you are interested. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student in Ontario pursuing a career in heavy industry, construction, or business management. Deadlines come around three times a year on August 1, November 1 and February 1, so aim for whichever one is next. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Amrize how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Amrize 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 Amrize whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
