Register now for a new semester of Uprooted U (Oct-Dec 2024)

We’re happy to announce the launching of a new semester of Uprooted U, a program that targets post-secondary education access for youth and newcomers facing barriers, with a focus on expanding our post-secondary offerings.

The program will run four semesters of three months each, starting in October 2024, covering various topical areas. Classes are online, on Zoom.

As part of our in-house Access to Education program, Uprooted U provides a non-accredited experience that mirrors the Canadian post-secondary education system. This initiative aims to expose participants to the system, particularly those unable to access post-secondary education due to factors like immigration status, finances, or language requirements.

The first term will run from October 2024 to December 2024. You have to register for a minimum of 3 courses and a maximum of 5 courses. Attendance at all 8 scheduled classes + 1 big assignment/exam class per course is mandatory.
