About this award

No fixed dollar amount is posted — contact University of Manitoba — Faculty of Science to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a scholarship, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you self-identify as a woman, are enrolled full-time in a master's program in the University of Manitoba's Faculty of Science, and have ancestral links to a Holocaust survivor or Residential School survivor. For 2026-2027, one scholarship is available, and 2026 applications are now open. To apply, submit the application form with a statement of no more than 2 sentences declaring that you meet the eligibility requirements, and a copy of your current transcripts.

Selection criteria aren't published — ask University of Manitoba — Faculty of Science how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds.

Tips for applying

  • StatementAvoid writing a long essay. Instead, keep to the limit: the statement is a maximum of 2 sentences declaring that you meet the eligibility requirements.
  • ReferencesAvoid using family members as referees. Instead, ask a professor or a lab supervisor who can speak to your academic skills. Send them your current CV so they have specific details to reference.
  • StrategyAvoid applying before you check the grade bar. Instead, confirm your grade point average on your last 60 credit hours (or equivalent) is at least 3.5, and ask the Faculty of Science when 2026 applications close, because no deadline is posted.
  • RealismAvoid assuming this is a guaranteed award. Instead, treat this as one part of a larger financial plan. Apply for multiple bursaries and scholarships to increase your chances of coverage.
