CPA’s Indigenous Student Award: Scholarship in Psychology

The purpose of this program is to encourage and support Indigenous (Inuit, First Nations, or Métis) students in psychology in Canadian universities.

Indigenous;
a CPA student affiliate in good standing at time of application, and if successful for the duration of the scholarship length; and
entering graduate studies or be a current graduate student at a Canadian university.

Value of the scholarship is $4000.00 per year, renewable for up to five additional years.

CLOSED for 2025 – Deadline for applications is May 10th, 2025.
