About this award

You can receive $2,810. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are starting your education in the skilled trades and can show that you have a strong academic record and a genuine financial need for funding. You must apply by April 2, 2026. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — whether it is by email, a student portal, or a phone call. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Holland College how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Holland College 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 Holland College whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

You must be entering your first year of studies in one of the following Holland College programs: Carpentry, Heritage Retrofit Carpentry, Industrial Electrical Technology, or Plumbing/Pipefitting. You must also be able to demonstrate academic achievement and financial need.
