February 15, 2022

The UBC Vancouver Summer Program (VSP) has just announced that its upcoming June 2022 session has shifted from in-person to virtual, as a result of issues related to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and global travel restrictions. The July 2022 VSP session, however, will be offered in person.

Designed to expand students’ perspectives at one of the world’s most international universities, the program is a four-week experience for international undergraduates at UBC’s Vancouver campus, with two summertime sessions per year. Students take condensed versions of UBC courses, taught by faculty, while enjoying social and cultural programming and events, immersing themselves in the local lifestyle and getting to know Canada.

This year, the first VSP online session runs June 6 to July 6, for a reduced fee of $2,500 CAD per student. The second session is July 16 to August 16 for $5,450 CAD per student. Course packages are detailed on the VSP website and will be finalized by the end of February.

For further information, register for an upcoming online information session:
Thurs., February 17 at 8 pm PST
Mon., February 28 at 7 am PST
Thurs., March 17 at 8 pm PST
Mon., March 28 at 8 pm PST
