About this award

You will receive $669.00. 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 graduate student specializing in Biology who needs extra financial support to complete your degree. You must apply by February 2, 2027. When you apply, ask Lakehead University how and when you will hear back — whether it is through email, the portal, or a phone call. The Department of Biology chooses the recipient and forwards the selection to the Office of Graduate Studies. Ask Lakehead University how many students usually apply, so you can judge your odds. Ask Lakehead University 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 Lakehead University whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

To qualify, you must be a full-time graduate student in Biology with a minimum B average. You must be a Canadian citizen or a landed immigrant of Canada. Additionally, you must have lived in Ontario for at least twelve months in a row. This award is granted based on your demonstrated financial need.

Financial NeedAvoid providing vague statements about your expenses. Instead, give a clear breakdown of your current costs and gaps in funding. List your monthly rent and tuition balance to show why you need this $669.00.
StrategyAvoid waiting until the February 2 deadline to check your portal. Instead, complete your General Application early. Since you are automatically considered based on that form, ensuring it is 100% complete is your main priority.
