About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for funding available to Indigenous students in STEM or skilled trades across Canada.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact General Dynamics Land Systems–Canada 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 are an Indigenous student pursuing a career in science, technology, engineering, math, or a trade. 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 General Dynamics Land Systems–Canada how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask General Dynamics Land Systems–Canada 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 General Dynamics Land Systems–Canada whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
