Connect with our community

Do you identify as First Nations, Inuit, or M茅tis? If so,聽you are encouraged to self-identify on your 海角社区 admission聽application. Self-identifying helps our dedicated Indigenous student recruitment advisor to connect with you one-on-one to share information about support services and funding opportunities聽specifically for Indigenous students. It also opens up the opportunity to apply for admission under the Indigenous Applicants Protocol.

How do I apply?

You start by finding a program that interests you and checking out the admissions requirements. The requirements vary depending on where the last school you went to is located.

The Indigenous Applicants Protocol encourages admissions decision-makers to take educational experiences that are unique to Indigenous applicants into consideration. This helps decision-makers understand the unique insight and motivations you will bring to campus.聽
