Many newcomers require academic aid in many forms, as many arrive in Canada without the ability to provide documentation of their previous educational history, such as transcripts and academic evaluations. At The Refugee Centre, we want to recognize individuals for their hard work, and assist them in their time of need. We offer academic equalization in conjunction with counselling, as well as several scholarships and bursaries for students and prospective students.
The WES Gateway Program assesses the educational credentials of individuals who have been displaced because of adverse circumstances in their country and have limited proof of academic achievements.
