About this award

You can receive approximately $7,000. 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 who needs financial support to complete your advanced degree. You must apply by November 16, 2026. When you apply, ask the University of Saskatchewan how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, the portal, or phone. Ask University of Saskatchewan how many students usually apply, so you can judge your odds. Ask University of Saskatchewan 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 University of Saskatchewan whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be an entering or continuing graduate student at the University of Saskatchewan. This is open to you if you are in a PhD program or a Master’s program, regardless of whether your Master's is thesis, project, or course-based. You must have a GPA (Grade Point Average — the average of all your final grades) of 80% or above and you must demonstrate financial need.

Tips for applying

• Financial NeedAvoid giving vague descriptions of your situation. Instead, provide clear details about your specific expenses and income gaps. List your monthly costs to show why this funding is needed.
• StrategyAvoid leaving the general application incomplete. Instead, double-check that every single financial question in the University of Saskatchewan General Application is answered. If you miss one question, you won't be considered.
• RealismAvoid assuming the approximate amount is guaranteed. Instead, treat the $7,000 as an estimate until you receive an official offer. Plan your budget with a slightly lower figure just in case.
