Join us at Laurier
Becoming a Golden Hawk means more than just cheering on our (really good) varsity teams – it means being a student who cares about your community, who works hard in the classroom, and who takes advantage of all the learning opportunities that can happen outside the classroom, too.

Greetings! Anin! Sgeno! Shekon! Shekoli! Tansi! Kwey! Boozhoo!
We acknowledge the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishnawbe and Haudenosaunee people.
We are committed to fostering a positive experience for all Indigenous students, whether you’re First Nations (status or non-status), Inuit or Métis. The Indigenous Student Centres provide a range of culturally relevant, wholistic support services and programs. We’ll assist you with the application process through to graduation. If you’re curious about our admission policies, funding, academic programs or even career planning, don’t hesitate to contact us.
