hi all! I’m taking a semester off from sep-Dec 2026, so I only have one semester to fulfill the requirements for progressing to 4th year standing (2 spec courses and 2 of 393/396/394)

im wondering if anyone has ever done 393 396 394 353 and 354 at the same time in one semester + if you’d recommend it? I’m thinking of pushing back 394 to 4th year but if anyone has any advice on which of the 3 general sauder courses to push back as well that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Hey! Is there anyone in Sauder right now thinking of starting a start-up team about a technology related issue? Please feel free to connect, I’m a 2nd year student at ubc and is really curious about the startup ecosystem in UBC and Vancouver and wish to contribute as a member to any projects or startups happening to gain further insight and experience. Please connect if you are thinking of starting one for Case Competitions, etc.

Basically the title.
I'm trying to be more productive with my time so instead of doomscrolling reels, I doomscroll Linkedin, and I've never been this stressed out in my life. Why is everyone so impressive, and where are they finding these opportunities? I aspire to be like them, and have a drive or a passion I want to relentlessly pursue but I don't know where to start. Any tips are honestly appreciated!!

what are my chances to get into sauder next year    

My final total average for grade 11 is 95%

a couple hightlights: 

• Pre-Calculus 12: 98%
• Physics 11: 95%
• Chemistry 11: 94%

my ecs are im on a competitive swim team,i work at the Y a life guard and swim instructor and take piano lessons.  Ive volunteered at food bank and a summer camp counsellor.  I started summer business as a private swim instructor at peoples private pools and i donate a portion of the proceeds to a swim lessons charity at the Y.  

Im working all summer with a college advisor and practicing my personal profile writing so Im ready for the questions on the app. I was born and live in BC.

Next year in grade 12 im talking calc, physics and econ (and a few other less related classes)

I just finished grade 11 here in Langley which is just outside of Vancouver, I have a 92.4% average with my strongest classes being pre calculus 11: 97% and economics 12: 96%. I have done cadets for 5 years and I have a YouTube passion project that I do and have gained a decent attraction in. What are my chances for Sauder and what can I improve on?

My daughter plans on applying when she graduates next year. Her college advisor tells her she has a strong chance. But now she’s freaking out because she thinks it’s going to be uber competitive and cut throat once she gets in. Tell me about the culture at sauder.

I just signed up for my first year classes today! All of the traditional ones plus an elective. For these classes, I'm thinking of just taking notes on my Macbook for all classes. However, do profs prefer or mandate handwritten notes instead? What other materials would I need to carry with me (folders, post-its, etc)? Do I need to carry textbooks or can I just leave them in my dorm?

Follow up...is it enough stuff that I'll need a traditional backpack, or can I get away with a large tote bag?

My time slot to get my courses is tmr at 9 am so like im lowkey an early bird #blessed
I feel like i should make multiple schedules just incase but how many is a good amount? Im thinking of 2 per term, is that enough?

Helloooo,

I have a question (basically the title). Who can I reach out to get a permission to organize an event??

Do I contact AMS Event?? Or who?
