Indigenous Applicant Pathway

Indigenous students enrolled in the Doctor of Medicine (MD) Program at Western University have access to dedicated, culturally responsive spaces, supports, and programming that affirm Indigenous identity and foster well-being. Western is also home to a growing Indigenous student population, with more than 700 Indigenous students enrolled across the institution.

Indigenous Student STEM Access Program

The Indigenous Student STEM Access Program (ISSAP) provides an alternative pathway for Indigenous students, including First Nation (Status and Non-Status), Métis, and Inuit, to pursue either an Engineering or Science program at Western University. ISSAP is designed as a supportive, preliminary year that helps students successfully transition from high school to university
