About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an Indigenous student award to help cover your post-secondary or technical training costs.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Teck Resources Limited 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 with demonstrated financial need who is pursuing higher education or specialized technical skills. You can apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Teck Resources Limited how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Teck Resources Limited 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 Teck Resources Limited whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
