About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary supporting Indigenous students at any post-secondary institution in Canada.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Mejuri Inc. 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 who wants to pursue higher education and identifies as female or non-binary, though all Indigenous students are welcome. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — before you start the application, check Mejuri Inc.'s program page or call their office to confirm when you will hear back. Selection criteria aren't published beyond the focus on financial need, community contribution, and academic merit — ask Mejuri Inc. how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Mejuri Inc. 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 Mejuri Inc. whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

More details
The biggest mistake is providing a vague statement about needing money.
Winners instead provide a clear budget showing exactly where their funding gap is and how this bursary solves it.
Many students simply list their volunteer hours.
Winners instead describe the actual impact they had on their community and use specific examples of how they helped others.
Since there are three separate deadlines (August 1, November 1, and February 1), don't wait until the final one.
Apply during the earliest window that fits your enrollment to get your funding sorted sooner.
