THUNDER BAY — The expansion of a free tuition program for nursing, paramedic, and lab technologist students who pledge to work in the region after graduation could make a meaningful difference, says the dean of Confederation College’s school of health.
“This is really exciting for Northwestern Ontario in that it will remove barriers for finances for students to participate, but it will also ensure our partners across the region get a return of service,” he said. The program will fully cover tuition and other compulsory fees like books, equipment, and uniforms for eligible students who commit to remain in the region to work in their field of study.
Students must be Ontario residents and either Canadian citizens, permanent residents, or protected persons to qualify. “Our health programs tend to be very popular, and have been over-subscribed in past years,” he said. “It depends on enrolment in that particular year, [but] we’re very confident in being able to make sure we fill all of our seats.”
