Athabasca University has announced a 10% tuition reduction for First Nations, Métis, and Inuit students in Canada as part of its efforts to enhance access and equity for Indigenous students. The tuition reduction, which took effect at the start of this month, applies to tuition fees for undergraduate courses. “Reducing tuition for First Nations, Métis, and Inuit students not only supports our efforts to improve access to a university education, it’s an important step in AU’s ongoing commitment to kwayskahsatsowin (conciliation) with Indigenous Peoples in Canada, and to the principles of truth and reconciliation,” explained AU President Dr Alex Clark.
