About this award

You can receive a maximum of $1,750 to help cover your tuition and fees for the Winter semester. There are two awards/scholarships available in total. As a scholarship, this money is yours to keep and does not have to be paid back, though it is applied strictly as payment towards tuition only. This is for you if you are starting a Yukon University certificate, diploma, or degree program in the Winter 2027 semester and need financial support to manage the cost of your first semester. You must apply by December 15, 2026. When you apply, ask how and when you'll hear back — email, portal, or phone. Selection criteria aren't published — ask Yukon University how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. The money is sent directly to the school as a tuition payment. Ask Yukon University during your application to confirm exactly how the funds are applied to your account so you can plan your cash flow. Renewal conditions aren't listed — if you're counting on this for multiple years, confirm with Yukon University whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

Who qualifies

To qualify, you must be a citizen or permanent resident of Canada. You must be entering a Yukon University certificate, diploma, or degree program for the first time in the Winter 2027 semester. Additionally, you must be registered in full-time studies, which means taking a minimum of 9.0 credits in the Winter semester, and you must demonstrate financial need.

Tips for applying

Financial NeedAvoid providing vague statements about needing money. Instead, fill in the Student Financial Award Application Form completely and describe your current financial situation clearly.
SupportAvoid submitting a generic application without checking your registration status. Instead, ensure your enrollment is officially confirmed for the Winter semester. Contact the registrar's office to verify you meet the 9.0 credit minimum.
StrategyAvoid waiting until the last minute. Instead, note the December 15, 2026 deadline and set a personal reminder for one week before it.
RealismAvoid assuming this award will cover all your costs. Instead, remember that only two of these awards are available. Plan a backup budget that includes other grants or loans.
