it has a social and lively campus with many events hosted. ubc is up-and-coming in green sustainability (just take a look at the cirs building!). academic life here is enriching and fulfilling.

I am
researching this school and
have visited the campus
I thought that the campus was amazing. It is in the middle of a forest like place, and one area that really impressed me was their Asian garden. It is definitely the best college campus i have been on so far.

As a large and old school, UBC tends to follow the status quo; the emphasis, as with most universities, is on hyper-specialization, though they are very good at it. However, if you look for it, there are lots of small initiatives for community integration with courses, for example, or programs that teach about social activism.

1. Although UBC is huge, it is easy to feel a little bit lost at times but it but because of its big size, it's also easy to find your nietzsche. 2. UBC has one of the most gorgeous campuses in the world, hands down. 3. UBC has a great international community and is extremely diverse.
