We wanted to let you know that the Petro-Canada Indspire post-secondary award application period is now open.

Below is additional information regarding the Petro-Canada Indspire Awards for students from Indigenous communities in which there is a Petro-Canada Retail or Wholesale location/operation: 

• Each year, through this program, Petro-Canada awards 8 post-secondary scholarships of $5,000 and 8 high school scholarships of $750! These awards will assist students in Indigenous communities with Petro-Canada sites!

• There are three application periods for post-secondary grants (deadlines of August 1^st, November 1^st and February 1^st). Many applicants submit prior to August 1^st and the grants are usually fully dispersed by the time the November 1^st and February 1^st deadlines come around. Therefore, we really encourage students to apply by the August 1^st deadline.  

• There is also the Petro-Canada Award for Canadian Indigenous Students enrolled in a Canadian high school program. The start date to apply is January 1^st with a deadline of June 1^st. 

• Students can apply by completing an application from the following website:  https://indspire.microsoftcrmportals.com/en-US/

• Applicants must click on the “Sign in” button located on the top right corner and they will be able to either access an application they started or create a new application. Please also note that there is only one application form for all of Indspire’s awards/grants. Students only need to complete the application once to be considered for all bursaries/scholarships/awards. Indspire then uses the information from the applications to help match students with awards applicable to them.
