About this award

You can receive a $500.00 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 student leader who balances your studies with active volunteer work in your local community. You must apply by October 31, 2026. When you apply, ask Saskatchewan Polytechnic how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, the portal, or phone. Selection is based on a weighted system: 50% for your academic achievement, 25% for your volunteerism, and 25% for your leadership activities. There is only 1 award available, so ask Saskatchewan Polytechnic how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Saskatchewan Polytechnic 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 Saskatchewan Polytechnic whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be enrolled full-time in any program at the Saskatchewan Polytechnic Regina campus.

Tips for applying

• Community InvolvementAvoid writing a vague list of places you have volunteered. Instead, write 1-2 paragraphs that describe specific leadership roles or activities where you helped others. Give a concrete example of a time your involvement made a difference.
• StrategyAvoid focusing only on your grades. Since academic achievement is only 50% of the score, spend equal effort detailing your leadership and volunteer work to maximize your points.
• RealismAvoid treating this as a guaranteed fund. Because there is only 1 award available, you should apply for several other bursaries at Saskatchewan Polytechnic to ensure you have enough funding.
