National Indigenous Scholarship Program

Western University

Awarded annually to 3 Indigenous undergraduate students (First Nations, Métis, and Inuit) studying full-time at Western's main campus based on their outstanding academic excellence, and meaningful and impactful contribution toward Indigenous communities.

Two scholarships will be awarded to students applying from Canadian high schools and one scholarship to an Indigenous student applying from a postsecondary institution.

Recipients must meet the minimum academic averages for their programs, and are selected on the basis of academic achievement, creative and innovative thinking, and previous or intended contributions to Indigenous communities (including on- and off-reserve and urban settings).
