About this award

You can receive a $2,000.00 award for your studies. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are starting your journey in agricultural science and food production at the Moose Jaw campus. 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 balanced split: 50% of the weight is placed on your academic achievement and 50% on your financial need. Only 1 award is available per academic year, so it is very competitive. Ask Saskatchewan Polytechnic how they calculate these weights and how many students typically apply. 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

To qualify, you must be enrolled full-time in Year 1 of the Agriculture and Food Production diploma program at the Saskatchewan Polytechnic Moose Jaw campus.

Tips for applying

• Financial NeedAvoid providing vague statements about your expenses. Instead, give a clear breakdown of your specific costs and gaps in funding. List your monthly rent and tuition balance to show exactly why you need the money.
• StrategyAvoid leaving your General Application incomplete. Since you are automatically considered based on that form, double-check that every section is finished before the deadline.
• RealismAvoid assuming this award is guaranteed since only 1 is given per year. Instead, apply for several other bursaries at Saskatchewan Polytechnic to increase your chances of getting funding.
