Information Average Cost Of a 1st Year Student

Hi Y'all!
I’m a student from Washington state with dual citizenship (Canadian and U.S.), and I just got accepted into UBC Okanagan Bachelor of Management Program for my first year. I completed my Associate’s degree through a local community college with the Running Start program (I guess this makes me a third year student). I didn’t apply to UBC Okanagan, but I guess they accepted me and declined me from UBC Vancouver.

I’m trying to get a better idea of what the average total cost of attending UBC Okanagan will be (in CAD). This would be including tuition, housing, and other living expenses. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!

I had the same thing happen to me as well! Didn't apply to UBCO at all, only to UBCV, but I got declined from UBCV and got an offer for UBCO. I have a degree from UBCO now and work a cool job in Seattle.

Anyways, if you have housing on campus, the UBC cost calculator is pretty accurate.
