Starting in Fall 2022, we will accept听10 Mi鈥檏maq and 10 African Nova Scotian students听(in addition to our current enrolment). Each cohort will have a wrap-around support framework that will be overseen by Cohort Advisors, who themselves are representative of our target communities.

This program will achieve the following:
(i) Increase the representation of Indigenous and African Nova Scotian students in the Medical Sciences BSc program
(ii) 听Increase the representation of Indigenous and African Nova Scotian students in downstream programs including Medicine, Dentistry, Pharmacy etc.
