Post-Secondary Education Guide for Indigenous Students Tips on How to Use the Directory
The SAY Education Guide is created each year for Indigenous students—as a tool in their journey to selecting a post-secondary institution that is right for them. This directory features hundreds of post-secondary institutions that offer Indigenous degree programs, Native American studies, Indigenous/Native American-specific programs, services and courses in Canada and the United States.
The material in the grid comes from various sources, including counsellors and school administrators. Over the years we’ve asked them what information is most requested by Indigenous students and those are the questions/answers featured in the survey.
Institutions are organized by country. Once you have selected either Canada or the United States, find the Region/Province/State in which you wish to study and browse the list of institutions.
For your reference, we have provided the list of survey questions to which respondents either answered “yes” or “no”. The legend below explains the different types of symbols used in the grid, which correlate to each question and will help you identify what programs/services are offered at each institution. A “yes” is indicated by a bullet point in the grid.
For further information and a full description of the programs/services these institutions offer, you should always review their websites. There you will discover more information than the SAY Guide is able to provide.
We want to thank those institutions that were very generous in sharing this information. Although SAY Magazine has made every attempt to ensure material in the Guide is correct, this is not a comprehensive listing and SAY Magazine is not responsible for any errors or omissions. If your institution needs to be added, or has new/updated information, please contact us at info@saymag.com.
