When seeking support, many students find it helpful and reassuring to connect with someone who shares similar lived experiences, cultural backgrounds, or identities. At NSCC, we are committed to fostering a welcoming and inclusive community. Through the Office of Black Student Success (for African Nova Scotian/Black students), the Office of L’nu Student Success (supporting Mi’kmaw/Indigenous students), and dedicated supports and services for 2SLGBTQ+ and international students, learners can access resources tailored to their unique needs and experiences.

There are a number of supports and services available to help you succeed in your program.
