Six awards of $40,000, payable at $10,000 per year, are given to Canadian-born Indigenous undergraduate students entering the University of Victoria, with preference for students with demonstrated financial need. Applicants must submit a letter (maximum 400 words) reflecting on how they see post-secondary education empowering them to help others and their community. Approval of the recipients will be made by the Senate Committee on Awards upon the recommendation of the Office of Indigenous Academic and Community Engagement (IACE). To be automatically renewed a student must have completed a total of 12.0 or more graded units in any two terms of study between May and April and maintained a GPA of 5.0/9.0 or higher. The award is automatically renewed for each year of the student's study until completion of a first undergraduate degree or for a maximum of three years, whichever is the shorter period. Students registered in a co-op or work experience work term will automatically be renewed when they next complete 12.0 or more graded units in two terms, provided they have maintained a GPA of a minimum of 5.0/9.0. Any student who takes neither a co-op, work experience work term, nor academic units for more than one term may forfeit their award.
