George Brown Polytechnic is located on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and other Indigenous peoples who have lived here over time. We are grateful to share this land as treaty people who learn, work and live in the community with each other.
Post-secondary life is about so much more than just going to class, so take advantage by getting involved through events, networking activities, student groups, clubs, volunteering, and more. Just remember, you belong here, and you are not alone!
