Indigenous Student Support

Dalhousie’s Indigenous Student Centres help create a sense of cultural belonging to support your success while at Dalhousie. Our Indigenous Student Advisors provide support and advocacy for all of Dalhousie’s Indigenous students. We welcome you to make use of our cultural, educational and career resources to enhance your university experience.

The Indigenous Student Centre provides:

  • one-on-one advising and advocacy
  • academic support through tutoring, study skills and writing skill development
  • quiet study space and a computer lab
  • access to cultural activities
  • information on scholarships and bursaries
  • a space to smudge
