About this award
You get $2,500. 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 starting your first year of university in the Faculty of Business and economics. You must apply by March 1, 2027. When you apply, ask University of Winnipeg how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, a portal, or phone. Selection is competitive and based on your Grade 12 entrance average. Since the exact number of winners isn't published, ask University of Winnipeg how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask University of Winnipeg 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 University of Winnipeg whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
Who qualifies
To qualify, you must be an Indigenous student entering first-year studies in the Faculty of Business and economics. You must declare a major in Business or Economics on your application for admission and have a minimum high school average of 80%. You can hold this scholarship concurrently with a UWinnipeg (University of Winnipeg) Special Entrance Scholarship.

- RealismAvoid assuming this is a guaranteed award. Instead, remember that selection is competitive and depends heavily on your Grade 12 entrance average. Apply for other bursaries at University of Winnipeg to diversify your funding options.
