Native Student Centre

The Native Student Centre (NSC) volunteers have an understating of Native cultures and the needs and issues faced by Native people while pursuing their education. Whether its band funding issues, transitioning from rural to urban life, or just getting together with a group of peers, the Native Student Centre can help. Whatever the need, or if you just want a place to find friends on your academic journey, the NSC will add to your experience while attending Mount Royal and in your future endeavours.
