About this award

No fixed dollar amount is posted — contact Dillon Consulting to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a bursary, 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 degree in a technical field. 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 the Indspire portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Dillon Consulting how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Dillon Consulting 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 Dillon Consulting whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You qualify for this award if you are a First Nation, Inuit, or Métis student. You must be studying at the undergraduate level in one of these technical areas: engineering, planning, or environmental and social sciences.

Tips for applying

StrategyAvoid applying only once. Since there are three separate deadlines (August 1, November 1, and February 1), you should track which one aligns best with your current semester's financial needs.
RealismAvoid assuming this is a guaranteed grant. Because it is funded by a professional consulting firm, it is likely highly competitive; treat this as a supplement to your financial plan rather than your primary source of funding.
