The American Indian Program (AIP) at Cornell University provides a unique combination of educational, social and cultural opportunities to Native students studying at the University.  Our first commitment is to facilitate students' academic success and address their cultural needs. Native student organizations, such as NASAC, AISES, IGSA, and NALSA allow students to develop leadership and organizational skills. On this website you can find out about our student support services, American Indian Studies courses, community outreach, learn about Akwe:kon and more.

We recruit Native applicants from all parts of the United States and Canada, and from rural, urban and reservation communities, through targeted regional efforts and national conferences. Our student support staff assists students and their parents with all aspects of the admissions process, from selecting the appropriate college through financial aid. We also assist with campus visits for prospective students and their families.  Check out the Student Life pages of our website for detailed information about admissions and student services.
