About this award
Apply by August 1, November 1, or February 1 for an award supporting Indigenous students in business and insurance programs.
The provider doesn't post a fixed dollar amount — contact Zurich Canadian Holdings Limited to confirm the value for your specific award before you apply. This is a scholarship, not a loan, so you do not have to pay it back. This is for you if you are an Indigenous student pursuing a career in business, risk management, or insurance. You have three 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 Zurich Canadian Holdings Limited how winners are chosen and roughly how many applicants they typically receive so you can judge your odds. Ask Zurich Canadian Holdings 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 Zurich Canadian Holdings Limited whether it's one-time or renewable and what you need to maintain.

More details
The biggest mistake is applying without checking if your specific diploma or degree is on the first-preference list.
Winners instead highlight exactly how their program matches the preferred list, such as the Insurance Management certificates at Humber or Centennial, to show they fit the ideal profile.
The biggest mistake is providing a generic character reference.
Winners instead secure letters from professors or mentors in the insurance or business sector who can vouch for their professional potential in these specific fields.
The biggest mistake is waiting until the final deadline.
Since there are three separate windows (August, November, and February), try to apply during the earliest one that fits your enrollment cycle to get your funding sorted sooner.
