About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an annual award supporting Indigenous students in any post-secondary program in Canada.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Pelmorex to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student pursuing higher education in Canada, especially if you are studying business, tech, or environmental sciences. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Pelmorex how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Pelmorex 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 Pelmorex whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
