Student Life
Academics:
Students enroll in two courses a semester in the program of study that they choose. Student responsibilities include:
Students are enrolled in courses as participatory auditors, this allows professors and inclusion facilitators to modify course work as much or as little as needed for the student to engage with the course. At the end of 4 or 5 years of study students receive a certificate of completion and attend convocation with their department of study. ** Students are responsible for paying tuition and purchasing textbooks. The cost of tuition is different at each campus, the local inclusion facilitators can let you know the approximate cost per term ** Campus Life:
Students are supported to get involved in campus life based on their interests. Students join clubs and course unions, make friends with similar interests, attend student parties and use the gym and recreation facilities on their campus.
Support is provided in invisible and individualized ways to allow students to make decisions about what they want to explore on campus. Career Development
Career development is a key part of Post-Secondary Education. Over 4 or 5 years of study, students have a variety of opportunities to figure out what they are interested in and how to build towards a career in their field of interest. During the summer (April - August) students are supported to find paid work, internships, training, networking and volunteer opportunities that relate to their career dreams.
