About this award
You can receive one of four awards valued at $1,404 each. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are an underprivileged student who shows academic promise and needs financial help to afford your university education. You must apply by October 1, 2026. When you apply, ask University of Winnipeg how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through a student portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask University of Winnipeg how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask University of Winnipeg 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 Winnipeg whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
Who qualifies
You must be an undergraduate or graduate applicant who demonstrates academic promise and financial need as identified by the Opportunity Fund. First priority is given to Indigenous students.
