Welcome to Aboriginal Student Services (AbSS)

Aboriginal Student Services is one of the services offered within the Student Development Centre. Our goal is to help all Aboriginal students, including Native, Inuit, and Métis, make the transition to the Brock University community. We recognize that the transition may be difficult due to differing cultures and perspectives. We offer services in a culturally sensitive manner and encourage you as an Aboriginal student to maintain your cultural identity within the university setting. At AbSS you will find an Aboriginal Student Advisor who is available to talk with you about your concerns while at the university, and if needed, will refer you to other services available on campus and in the community. AbSS is an advocate centre, working on your behalf as a liaison between the student and the faculty or administration, and by encouraging peer support.
