Joining in September
Hey, everyone 👋
This post is directed largely towards the current UBCO students.
My name is Nirvana, I’m an international student joining in September as a first year student. I am 17 years old (turning 18 on 15th September) I’ve applied for my on-campus accommodations (haven’t received any confirmation of anything though, waiting on further communication from UBCO).
I have a number of questions regarding UBCO’s accommodations, student life on campus and in Kelowna, convenience facilities on campus (such as grocery stores, mess halls/cafes, laundry rooms, etc.), transportation, schedules, exams/test, semester structure, nightlife/entertainment, so on and so forth.
Basically, I want to get an idea of what day to day life is like there. I also have smaller nuanced questions regarding my personal situation which I cannot isolate into a single category.
I was initially going to ask everything here but I realised it would turn into a massive wall of text. If anyone is willing to shoot me a DM and hop on a quick voice call sometime, I’d really appreciate it. It would be a far easier and more natural way to go through everything rather than sending hundreds of messages back and forth.
Thanks in advance, I look forward to joining UBCO.
