Humber College, McGill University, and Red River College Polytechnic have announced tuition and application fee waivers for Indigenous students. Humber announced that it will offer free tuition to Indigenous students from eight First Nations communities starting this Fall: Alderville First Nation, Curve Lake First Nation, Hiawatha First Nation, Chippewas of Georgina Island, Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation, Mississaugas of the Scugog Island First Nation, Mohawks of the Bay of Quinte (Tyendinaga Mohawk), and Six Nations of the Grand River. Similarly, McGill has announced that it will cover tuition and mandatory fees for Indigenous students from local and proximate First Nations communities. The university will also cover tuition and fees for those pursuing programs that are delivered through Indigenous partnerships. RRC Polytech is waiving application fees for First Nations, Métis, and Inuit learners during the month of June to reduce barriers to education and increase Indigenous enrolment.
