International Student Enrollment

---

The transition to campus life can be both exciting and overwhelming, especially when the training institute you are attending is in a different country.

There is a lot to remember, so to help you get off on the right foot, we have compiled a few checklists as you are going through the enrollment process with us, and we have arranged it all by time frame, so you know when you need to accomplish each step!

To do 6-9 months out:  Apply for Admission

You can submit an application to New Brunswick Indigenous Career College through a partner agent or independently.  A partner agent will walk you through the application process. If you wish to submit an independent application, please complete the following steps:
