Students who are members of one of the seven First Nations whose traditional territories are home to Kwantlen Polytechnic University campuses will have their tuition and fees waived starting in the upcoming fall semester.

Students who are members of one of the seven First Nations whose traditional territories are home to Kwantlen Polytechnic University campuses will have their tuition and fees waived starting in the upcoming fall semester.

"Education is fundamental to reconciliation," said Alan Davis, KPU's president and vice chancellor. "We are committed to creating new opportunities and a welcoming environment for Indigenous students in higher education."

Davis received loud applause and cheers when he made the surprise announcement at the Surrey campus on Tuesday.

"That's huge. If it was me as a young person, I would totally jump onboard and utilize the opportunity that's put forward," said Rich Pierre who was emcee for the event.

Pierre, a member of the Katzie First Nation said he was caught off-guard by the announcement but is excited about what it means for young people in his community.

The tuition waiver applies to students who are members of the Kwantlen, Katzie, Semiahmoo, Musqueam, Tsawwassen, Qayqayt and Kwikwetlem First Nations.

The Kwantlen Students Association is also waiving fees for eligible students.
