Welcome Back!

Aaniin! Boozhoo! 

September is now almost gone and we are well into the Autumn weather here in Alberta! Students are back in classes as the Fall 2013 semester gets underway. 

Some important things to note are application dates for Fall 2014 will be coming up soon! Some institutions open applications for next year as early as October 1 2013. Check institutional websites often for updates and important deadlines to make sure you are on-track for your plan to post-secondary!

Some AARN members will be participating in many ELAA events http://elaa.ab.ca/ so be sure to check if the institution you are interested in will be visiting a school near you. 

A great resource for Aboriginal students and educators was recently launched through the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC) Check it out for information on admissions, applications, scholarships and even stories from current Aboriginal students from various institutions across Canada http://www.aucc.ca/canadian-universities/aboriginal-student-resources/  

AARN is currently working to complete institutional updates for Aboriginal communities in Alberta to be compiled into one CD. If you are interested in receiving one of these CD's, please email us at aboriginal.recruitment.alberta@gmail.com

As always, if you have any questions about AARN, or you would like to invite AARN members to come to your career or education fair, please contact us!

Happy Autumn!
