Celebrating 40 years!

40th cover.jpg

Yellowquill University College celebrated its 40th anniversary on October 1st, 2024. As the first and only First Nations post-secondary institution in Manitoba, we have always been a hub of exciting opportunities. We take pride in the quality of education we provide our students, which has helped them secure promising employment opportunities after graduation. We are honoured by the good work done by our staff, students, and alumni.

Yellowquill College was established in 1984 by the Dakota Ojibway Tribal Council as a way to promote "Indian Control of Indian Education". They believed that creating a post-secondary institute owned and operated by First Nations would lead to a better future.
