About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for a bursary to support your trades training if you are an Indigenous student with financial need.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Wolseley Canada 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 currently training in the trades who needs extra financial help to finish your schooling. You have three different deadlines to choose from: August 1, November 1, and February 1. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Wolseley Canada Inc. how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Wolseley Canada 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 Wolseley Canada Inc. whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.
