This university provides a high quality education to the students while also addressing their mental health and physical health needs. There are a variety of choices when it comes down to degrees so definitely do your research before applying. I am currently in the Visual Arts Program at UBC’s Okanagan campus and I thoroughly enjoyed what the program has had to offer so far. Although 1st year was very generic and the studio classes may be very long, it was worth it. The environment was very intimidating at first but everyone around is very willing to help, and talking to professors definitely helped me transition from high school into university

UBC is known as a place that encourages students to excel not only in academics but also in life in general. There are so many student-oriented festivals, and non-profit organizations activities for students to learn new knowledge outside school and make new friends. I made so many friends at UBC via my extracurricular times.
