About this award

You can receive $2,400. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are starting your career in construction management and have a demonstrated financial need for funding. You must apply by September 15th. When you apply, ask RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) how and when you will hear back — whether by email, phone, or through the application portal. Winners are chosen based on your financial need, the content of your personal statement, and your letter of reference if you choose to include one. Selection criteria for the number of applicants are not published — ask RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) how many people typically apply so you can judge your odds. Ask RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) 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 RRC Polytech (Red River College Polytechnic) whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be a full-time student who is either entering or currently in the first year of the Construction Management Degree Program. You must have achieved a minimum 70% average across three Grade 12 (40S — senior level) courses: English, Mathematics, and your highest-graded additional 40S course.

Tips for applying

StatementAvoid writing a generic letter about wanting a degree. Instead, explain exactly why you chose the Construction Management Degree Program and how this specific money will help you succeed. Describe a specific goal you have for your career in construction.
ReferencesAvoid omitting a reference letter just because it is optional. Instead, include a letter from a teacher, guidance counselor, or employer who knows you well. This is considered an asset and can help your application stand out.
StrategyAvoid forgetting to specify the award name on your form. Instead, clearly write "Construction Management Entrance Award" on your application so the reviewers know exactly which fund you are applying for.
RealismAvoid assuming that a high GPA alone guarantees the award. Instead, focus heavily on your statement of financial need, as the selection process prioritizes students who truly need the funding to attend school.
