About this award

You get $894.00. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep — there is nothing to repay. This is for you if you are an English student who has worked hard to maintain your grades while managing financial challenges. You must apply by January 31, 2027. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Ask Lakehead University how many students usually apply, 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're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Lakehead University whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

To qualify, you must be entering the final year of the Honours Bachelor of Arts degree program in English at Lakehead University. You must have a minimum B+ standing and demonstrate financial need.

Tips for applying

Financial NeedAvoid providing vague statements about your expenses. Instead, give a clear picture of your current financial situation. List your specific monthly gaps to show why this $894.00 is needed.
StrategyAvoid treating this as a separate application. Instead, focus on your General Application in the Lakehead University portal. Ensure every section of that main form is complete since you are automatically considered based on it.
RealismAvoid assuming this award is guaranteed just because you meet the B+ requirement. Instead, remember that financial need is also a factor. Apply for multiple bursaries to increase your chances of coverage.
