About this award

You can receive a $2,000.00 award. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are training to become a technician for agricultural machinery and have a strong academic record from high school. 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, phone, or through a student portal. Selection criteria aren't published — 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

Trade area, which includes Assiniboia, Montmarte, Moose Jaw, Mossbank, Raymore, Regina, Southey, and Weyburn.
