University of British Columbia (reviews)

Good university. Loved the location (of course it rains a lot). Good instructors overall. There were lots of opportunities to join clubs (within your specific interest) and graduate school life was well-funded (generally).

Attending UBC for four years has been a great experience for me as I felt valued and included in the community. Especially for the Bachelor of Arts programs, all faculty members embraced students of different backgrounds and identities, and I am very grateful that I could be a part of that faculty.

Overall, I had a good experience. I spent a lot of years in this university from undergrad to grad. I only have a complaint about not having any subway, only bus available. Other than that, good classes, professors, and classmates.

As a student with a learning disability, UBC was very accommodating to me, with a no-questions-asked policy as long as students sign up for the Centre for Accessibility. This made classes a lot more manageable and I feel like I was truly able to put my best effort forward with accommodations for my learning disability.
