A major milestone in our PC government’s commitment to improving student housing has been reached with the opening of a new residence at the Nova Scotia Community College (NSCC) Ivany campus in Dartmouth.
The modern facility will provide safe, comfortable accommodations for 200 students starting this September, helping to ease pressure on the local housing market.
“Supporting student housing helps Nova Scotians stay here and frees up more housing in the surrounding communities,” said Brendan Maguire, Minister of Advanced Education. “By investing in student housing, we’re helping to ensure students have a safe place to live while they learn.”
The project is part of Our Homes, Action for Housing the government’s five‑year housing plan. Since 2023, the plan has paved the way for more than 51,000 new housing units across the province.
