Funding for Indigenous* graduate students, including internal and external awards and bursaries can be found on our searchable graduate funding and awards database. If you are seeking funding for Indigenous students, use the Affiliation option to limit your search.

Additionally, the Office of Indigenous Relations at the University of Waterloo has a webpage that details Bursaries, Awards & Scholarships.

*For the purpose of awards, an Indigenous person is one who is a citizen or member of a First Nations community (Status/Non-Status), Métis, or Inuit as defined in the Canadian Constitution Act 1982. To protect the integrity of Indigenous graduate students eligible for specific funding, those identifying as Indigenous must be verified by the Office of Indigenous Relations at the University of Waterloo through the Indigenous verification process.
