About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for one of 20 scholarships supporting Indigenous students in any program of study.
The provider does not post a fixed dollar amount — contact Cheekbone Beauty 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. This is for you if you identify as Indigenous and are pursuing post-secondary education to ignite change in your life and reach your aspirations. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — when you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back via email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Cheekbone Beauty how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds, though they have a goal of issuing 20 scholarships in 2024. Ask Cheekbone Beauty 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 Cheekbone Beauty whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
