About this award

You get a $500 award. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are a second-year student in the Medical Laboratory Technology program at NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) who excels in professionalism and blood collection. You must apply by February 12, 2027. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Winners are chosen based on your academic achievement in MELT1204 (the course covering Professionalism and Blood Collection) and your overall professionalism, including your attendance, attitude, and interpersonal skills during your didactic year. Selection criteria aren't published — ask NAIT how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask NAIT 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 NAIT whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be a second-year student currently enrolled in the Medical Laboratory Technology program at NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology). To qualify, you need strong academic results in MELT1204 (Professionalism and Blood Collection) and a proven record of punctuality, accountability, and professional behavior in all your courses during your didactic year.

Tips for applying

ProfessionalismAvoid thinking that only your grades in MELT1204 matter. Instead, focus on your daily habits like punctuality and your attitude in every single course. Track your attendance records to ensure they reflect your reliability.
SupportAvoid relying solely on the automated system. Instead, talk to your instructors in the Medical Laboratory Technology program to ensure your professional behavior is being noticed. Ask them for feedback on your interpersonal skills.
StrategyAvoid forgetting to complete your General Application. Instead, treat the General Application as your primary tool for winning this award since no separate application is required. Log into the NAIT (Northern Alberta Institute of Technology) awards portal to double-check that your profile is 100% complete.
RealismAvoid assuming you will win just by being enrolled. Instead, remember that this award targets a very specific set of behavioral and academic markers in one program. Focus on maintaining a perfect professional record throughout your didactic year.
