About this award

Deadlines fall on August 1, November 1 and February 1 for this bursary targeting Indigenous students from or studying in Ontario.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Rochon Building Corporation to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. As a bursary, this money is yours to keep and you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you have any Indigenous affiliation and are pursuing a post-secondary education in construction or architecture. Deadlines come around three times a year on August 1, November 1 and February 1, so aim for whichever one is next. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through the application portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Rochon Building Corporation how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Rochon Building Corporation 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 Rochon Building Corporation whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
