About this award

No fixed dollar amount is posted — contact Judith Hamilton 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 a member of the Waywayseecappo First Nations community in Manitoba looking to pursue your educational aspirations. 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, a portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Judith Hamilton how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Judith Hamilton 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 Judith Hamilton whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be from Waywayseecappo First Nations in Manitoba. This award is open to you regardless of your program of study or your level of study, as long as you have First Nations affiliation.

Tips for applying

IdentityAvoid providing a generic application. Instead, highlight your specific connection to the Waywayseecappo First Nations community and explain how this funding helps you realize your aspirations.
StrategyAvoid waiting until the final deadline. Since there are three windows (August, November, and February), try to apply for the earliest one to secure funds sooner.
RealismAvoid assuming the amount is fixed. Because the value isn't public, treat this as a helpful top-up rather than your primary source of tuition until you confirm the amount with the funder.
