UBC's Vancouver campus is located on the Point Grey Peninsula, just 30 minutes from downtown Vancouver. In addition to a view that spans snow-capped mountains and the Pacific Ocean, Vancouver is a popular tourist destination teeming with attractions and activities. As one of Canada's most multicultural cities, Vancouver is renowned for its diverse cuisine, contemporary art and urban design.
Vancouver has a relatively high cost of living, which can result in a culture shock to newcomers. As a student, you will find it useful to budget your spending wisely in order to cover your daily expenses.
Many students choose to live on-campus. UBC offers eight university residences in addition to residential neighbourhoods located on campus. More information on on-campus housing can be found here.
