About this award

You can receive a $1,115 bursary. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are a full-time student at Nipissing University who faces financial challenges. You must apply by November 1, 2026. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection is based on financial need. Ask Nipissing University how many students usually apply, so you can judge your odds. Ask Nipissing University 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 Nipissing University whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be one of four full-time Nipissing University students selected on the basis of financial need. You must also be a resident of Ontario as defined by OSAP (the Ontario Student Assistance Program — the provincial office that manages student loans and grants).

Tips for applying

• Financial NeedAvoid providing vague descriptions of your situation. Instead, use specific numbers to show how your current budget falls short of your tuition and living costs. List your monthly expenses clearly.
• SupportAvoid omitting details about other funding you receive. Instead, be transparent about your total financial picture so the committee understands your actual gap. Update your OSAP profile to ensure your data is current.
• StrategyAvoid waiting until the last minute to check your portal. Instead, complete your General Application early since this award considers you automatically based on that form. Double-check that all your personal info is accurate.
• RealismAvoid assuming this award is guaranteed just because you have financial need. Instead, remember that only four students receive this annually. Apply for multiple bursaries to increase your chances of funding.
