Aboriginal Access Program

AN OPPORTUNITY FOR INDIGENOUS STUDENTS TO GAIN ACCESS TO UNIVERSITY STUDY.


En'owkin Centre and UBC Okanagan are offering a new opportunity for Indigenous students to gain access to university study. This program allows Aboriginal students to register in university-level courses without registering in a degree program or undergoing the University's standard admission process.

What does this mean?
This program is exciting because it allows students to experience college and university life and as well give them time to upgrade skills that assist the learner to be successful in achieving their goals. In addition learners have the opportinity to get accustomed to the more difficult courses required at college and university in a supportive, cultural setting.





    Term 1 courses delivered at En'owkin will include all of the following:
  • English 114 - University Writing: An Aboriginal Perspective
  • Indigenous Studies 100 - Introduction to Aboriginal Studies
  • NSYL 110 - Nsyilxcen I (En'owkin Centre - Okanagan Language)
    Term 2 courses delivered at En'owkin will include three of the following:
  • Math 126 - Basic Mathematics: An Aboriginal Perspective
  • A 100-level English course (with some exceptions)
  • NSYL 111 - Nsyilxcen II (En'owkin Centre - Okanagan Language)
  • UBC Okanagan elective

STUDENTS MUST APPLY AND REGISTER ON-LINE
