Experience daily student life, inside and outside of class
For our summer-on campus program, you can choose to stay in a student residence on the beautiful 400-acre UBC Vancouver campus and live the full university experience. Or you can commute daily to the UBC Vancouver campus. No matter which option you choose, you’ll be part of a welcoming and supportive student community.
Make friends from around the world
You’ll be amazed at the friendships you’ll make in just two weeks! Be part of a welcoming and inclusive student community.
Residence option
Live on campus in a single furnished residence room. Eat in the cafeteria, socialize with other students and get to know the student life assistants who will support you every step of the way. You’re in easy reach of campus amenities and all the recreation you could ask for. Join evening and weekend activities that include visits to Vancouver’s favourite attractions: Grouse Mountain, Granville Island and Robson Street (downtown Vancouver).
Commuter option
For the commuter option, you have or will provide your own accommodation and commute to the UBC campus.
Enjoy lunch on campus and participate in workshops and social activities where you can get to know other Future Global Leaders.
Virtual student lounge
Hosted by our student ambassadors, the Virtual Student Lounge is another way Future Global Leaders can meet and chat with each other before and during the program. Join the discussion and share your experiences.
