Email me when the date is posted

We send one link to confirm, then an email when a confirmed deadline is posted and reminders before it closes.
We store your address only to send these reminders, and delete it the moment you unsubscribe.
What we keep

Nothing else is sent until you press the button in the confirmation email. If you never do, the address is deleted within 30 days. Otherwise it goes 60 days after the deadline or the moment you unsubscribe, whichever comes first. We never sell or trade it. The full privacy policy.

Worth knowing

Aimed squarely at the robotics student who is going into the trades rather than engineering. You must have competed on a FIRST Robotics Competition or FIRST Tech Challenge team. The package is a form, a recommendation letter from a high school instructor whose class you took, an official high school transcript, and a 500-word essay on your FIRST participation and why you want a trade. Home-schooled applicants should contact the FIRST scholarship committee for substitutes for the letter and transcript. The money is not paid to you. After winning you send FIRST Canada a letter naming the college program, and it must arrive by the end of the second week of classes. The 2026 deadline was March 15 at 11:59 p.m. ET. Apprenticeship not mandatory.

About this scholarship

Two awards of $2,500 from FIRST Robotics Canada for students who competed on a FIRST team and are heading into a skilled trade or apprenticeship, not a degree.
