About this award

No fixed dollar amount is posted — contact Arthur Erickson Foundation Yosef Wosk Family Foundation to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a scholarship, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a First Nation, Inuit, or Métis student pursuing a career in design, specifically within architecture or landscape architecture. 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 — whether it is by email, phone, or through an application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Arthur Erickson Foundation Yosef Wosk Family Foundation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Arthur Erickson Foundation Yosef Wosk 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 Arthur Erickson Foundation Yosef Wosk Family Foundation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be a First Nation, Inuit, or Métis student. You must be pursuing studies in Architecture or Landscape Architecture at the college or university level. There are two distinct award paths: one for students either entering or already enrolled in an undergraduate program, and another for students entering or already enrolled in a graduate program.

StrategyAvoid waiting until the final deadline. Since there are three windows (August, November, and February), apply during the earliest one that fits your enrollment status to get your funding sorted sooner.
RealismAvoid assuming this is a general arts grant. Because this is strictly for Architecture and Landscape Architecture, your application must prove you are in those specific programs or you will be disqualified immediately.
