In a survey released in early November, NAIT students have been asked to share their visions of an ideal NAIT student housing.
The student housing design project is considering multiple possible elements of designing a ‘home away from home’. These include relaxing and socializing spaces, childcare, and family planning support for students wanting to plan or adopt a child. In addition to the family center, to accommodate students’ families they are also planning family-oriented suites.
According to the Comprehensive Institutional Plan 2016/17-2018/19, NAIT has already set $10 million aside to introduce student housing.
