New national database enhances access to university
There's a new online tool to provide Aboriginal students with better access to information on programs and services on university campuses across Canada. The comprehensive, searchable database of resources is designed to meet the needs of Aboriginal students. The tool was developed by the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada.
Prospective students and their families can use the tool to find information on the 286 different academic programs designed for Aboriginal students and other helpful resources available at Canadian universities, such as financial assistance, housing, cultural activities, counselling, availability of Elders, gathering spaces and mentoring.
The new directory of university programs and services for Aboriginal students can be found here:
