Students and leaders from White Earth Tribal & Community College joined representatives from other regional colleges at Bemidji State University to meet with the Minnesota Office of Higher Education and share their experiences with programs supporting Native American students.
The conversation highlighted the impact of the American Indian Scholars Program and Minnesota Indian Scholarship Program, along with the importance of hearing directly from students about access, financial aid and their college experience.
We’re proud to see WETCC students represented in conversations that can help strengthen pathways to higher education for Native students across Minnesota.
