About this award

No fixed dollar amount is posted — contact KPMB Architects to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. 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 an Indigenous student pursuing a career in design and planning, specifically within architecture or urban environments. Deadlines come around three times a year on August 1, November 1 and February 1, so aim for whichever one is next. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through the application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask KPMB Architects how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask KPMB Architects 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 KPMB Architects whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You qualify if you have any Indigenous affiliation and are attending a post-secondary institution, such as a college, university, or technical college. You must be studying Architecture, Landscape Architecture, or Urban Planning. This award is open to you regardless of your current level of study.
