About this award

You receive $4,289.00. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you have transitioned from an engineering background into business leadership studies at Lakehead University. You must apply by February 2, 2027. When you apply, ask Lakehead University how and when you will hear back — whether by email, phone, or through the awards portal. You are automatically considered for this award based on your completed General Application. Since selection criteria aren't published, ask Lakehead University how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive 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 are counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Lakehead University whether it is one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

To qualify, you must have completed a Bachelor degree in Engineering from Lakehead University and be currently enrolled in the Master of Business Administration (MBA — a professional graduate degree in business management) program. You must also hold a minimum 80 average.

Tips for applying

• SupportAvoid relying solely on the automated system. Instead, reach out to the graduate studies office to confirm your General Application is fully complete. This ensures no technical glitch prevents your automatic consideration.
• StrategyAvoid leaving your General Application blank or incomplete. Instead, fill out every optional field in the Lakehead University awards portal. Since this is an automatic process, the more data you provide, the easier it is for the system to match you to this award.
• RealismAvoid treating this as a guaranteed fund. Instead, remember that automatic consideration still involves a competitive selection process. Maintain a backup financial plan while you wait for the February deadline results.
