Student Affairs - Leaders in cultivating exceptional student experiences!

I am grateful to the Anishinaabeg, Ininewuk, Anisininewuk, Dakota Oyate, Dene, and the Red River Metis peoples, on whose home lands I live. I am also grateful to the people of Shoal Lake 40 in Treaty 3 territory, whose water I drink.

Fyi - The following message was sent to Students with Iranian citizenship because UM received several inquiries about supports available both academically and to leave Iran. This is in addition to the broader message we posted on the IC Instagram account on Monday.

Any questions, please reach out. Fanny

The University of Manitoba recognizes the growing concern and distress felt by our students impacted by the escalating situation in the region.

Student Affairs: Creating opportunities for student success!

The University of Manitoba campuses are located on original lands of Anishinaabeg, Cree, Ojibwe-Cree, Dakota, and Dene peoples, and on the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. We respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, we acknowledge the harms and mistakes of our past, and we dedicate ourselves to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of Reconciliation and collaboration.
