Indspire Building Brighter Futures Bursaries, Scholarships and Awards

• Amounts depend on assessed financial need, number of applicants, fields of study and available funds

• Awards are reported as income (T4A)

• Applications accepted May 1 to February 1 for the 2026-2027 year (cycle closes February 1, 2027)
• Consideration dates: August 1, November 1 and February 1, 11:59 p.m. ET
