Finding genuine people is a struggle. So I’d suggest joining clubs – there is good campus life if you do it through clubs. Frat parties are overrated -you won’t meet anyone – walking there with friends is always the highlight of the night

Frats and Sororities give high school energy

UBC course selection is a pain and very difficult to get the courses you want. Plan your degree major path BEFORE the first year otherwise you’re screwed.

Profs in huge classes don’t care if you are in hard personal situations. They’ve heard too many excuses to care- even if you’re telling the truth. UBC campus is beautiful and living in the rez first year is ideal for the uni experience.

Pace yourself on nights out and look out for your friends.
