About this award

You can receive a $1,000 award. 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 studying in an electrical trade or related program and have a demonstrated financial need. You must apply by January 22, 2027. When you apply, ask Confederation College how and when you will hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through a portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Confederation College how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Confederation College 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 Confederation College whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be studying in an electrical trade or related program. Selection is based on your financial need.
