The University of British Columbia

UBC Student Housing and Hospitality Services recognizes the commitment that students are making to achieve academic success, and strives to promote residence as a valuable tool to help them on their way. This means that residents will be provided with three things during their time with us, regardless of the area they live in:

• An environment conducive to effective studying and learning
• The best academic resources that UBC has to offer
• The opportunity to forge meaningful relationships with peers, mentors, and faculty members.

Please continue to check this section for tips and links to help you down the path of your academic career! Feel free to contact your advisor if you have any questions or want to get involved.
