About this award

Deadlines fall on August 1, November 1 and February 1 for a bursary supporting Indigenous post-secondary students from Canada's North with financial need.

The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Tachane Foundation Inc. 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 Canada's North who needs financial help to cover your education costs. 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 a portal. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Tachane Foundation Inc. how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Tachane Foundation Inc. 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 Tachane Foundation Inc. whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be an Indigenous post-secondary student from Canada's North with any Indigenous affiliation. You must show demonstrated financial need. While open to various paths, preference will be given to you if you are from Tachane communities and studying skilled trades, business, medical, or education programs.
