About this award

You can receive a $1,000 award. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are pursuing an undergraduate degree in an academic program that leads to a career in business, science, or communications and you have a record of leadership and community involvement. You must apply by October 31, 2026. When you apply, ask First Nations University of Canada how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, phone, or through the portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask First Nations University of Canada how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask First Nations University of Canada 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 First Nations University of Canada whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Tips for applying

• Community InvolvementAvoid just listing the organizations where you volunteered. Instead, describe one specific time your leadership or involvement made a difference in your community. Write about the actual impact you had.
• StrategyAvoid submitting a generic application. Instead, clearly connect your choice of study in business, science, or communications to your future career goals. Explain why this specific path is the right one for you.
• RealismAvoid assuming this is a guaranteed award based on your grades alone. Instead, remember that financial need and community involvement are also key factors. Focus your application on showing all four areas of the criteria.
