UNBC, Shad Canada partner to offer tuition credit to summer camp students

The University of Northern British Columbia and Shad Canada have partnered to make postsecondary education more affordable to students who participate in UNBC’s Shad Canada Summer Program. Eligible students who take part in the summer camp program on UNBC’s campus will be eligible for a tuition credit of up to $2.5K. “These promising young innovators are already demonstrating the curiosity, creative thinking, and collaborative skills needed to foster solutions to some of the pressing issues facing communities,” said UNBC Interim President Bill Owen. “The tuition credit is a meaningful way to keep the momentum going and encourage Shad UNBC participants to imagine the next steps in their educational journey.”
