<\/p>\nIndigenous Enriched Support Program (IESP) students take first-year credit courses while benefiting from academic support in the form of weekly workshops. At the end of their IESP year, students who achieve the necessary grade point average across three courses (C+ for most Arts programs) are eligible for acceptance into full-time study in many degree programs at Carleton.<\/p>\n
IESP students enroll in three university credit courses: one core First-Year-Seminar credit and two courses from a list of first-year subjects supported by IESP.<\/p>\n
