Apply for Unilock scholarships by Sept. 16
Once again, Unilock’s Paving the Future Scholarship program is offering $5,000 scholarships to students enrolled in their final year of a post-secondary landscape architecture or landscape construction program in Ontario. The deadline to apply is Sept. 16, 2024.

Since 2022, Unilock has awarded $175,000 to 35 students and is looking to help the next cohort of talented recipients as they start their new career.

To be eligible, applicants must meet the following criteria:
  • Be a permanent resident of the U.S. or Ont., Canada.
  • Be enrolled in their final year of a full-time, post-secondary undergraduate or graduate program within landscape management, landscape construction, horticulture landscaping, turf grass management or related field at a vocational school, community college or university. Students in an apprenticeship program are also eligible.
  • Demonstrate academic excellence, maintaining a minimum cumulative average letter grade of B and show a desire to pursue a career in their field of study.
  • Demonstrate leadership and an ongoing commitment to their community.
“We introduced the Paving the Future Scholarship in 2022 to commemorate our 50th anniversary and we have seen a strong response in applications for the past two years,” said Diane Williams, VP of marketing at Unilock. “The landscape design and construction industry is a growing field and we are proud to continue to support this growth by recognizing the future innovators and thought leaders in the landscape profession.

Unilock company founder Ed Bryant passed away in 2021 and the company’s Paving the Future Scholarship was started to commemorate Bryant’s legacy by investing in a new generation of landscape design, architecture and construction leaders.

To enter, students must submit an application, including answering questions describing why they are passionate about a career in landscape construction or landscape architecture and how they intend to actively contribute to the overall industry.

Winners will be notified on Oct. 11, 2024. Applications for both the landscape construction and landscape architecture scholarships can be submitted online at unilock.com/paving-the-future-scholarship.
