About this award

Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an Indigenous bursary to help cover your post-secondary education costs.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Stantec 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 are an Indigenous student from a remote community or the Wood Buffalo region who needs financial help to afford your schooling. You have three deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. No notification timeline is posted publicly — when you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back via email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Stantec how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Stantec 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 Stantec whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
