If you’re planning to live on-campus or in Kelowna in the fall, Jump Start will welcome you to life at UBC.
Whether you’re planning to live off-campus or in student housing on campus (known at UBCO as “residence”) in your first year, Jump Start gives you the opportunity to arrive early, get to know your new campus, and meet your first friends in person. You can enjoy scheduled group events with your classmates, as well as sessions you can take part in with student leaders, and other campus experts.
Due to the positive impact Jump Start can have on a student’s academic success and transition to university, UBC is committed to ensuring Jump Start is accessible to all direct entry students. If the cost associated with Jump Start may prohibit you from participating, please contact us directly at jumpstart.ok@ubc.ca
Self-Identified Indigenous Students are welcomed to participate in Jump Start free of costs provided they have self-identified through the SSC. Once you have self-identified, please contact jumpstart.ok@ubc.ca for a discount code.
