Change of Campus

Change of Campus applies to students who are currently attending UBC and who wish to change from the UBC Vancouver campus to the UBC Okanagan campus, or vice versa, with the exception of students in the Bachelor of Applied Science program.

Current students who wish to change to a different program at the same campus, please see Change of Degree Program.

Students who are not currently attending UBC and wish to return, please see Readmission.

Bachelor of Applied Science students who wish to change campuses should contact either Engineering Student Services at the Vancouver campus or the Student Development Officer within the School of Engineering at the Okanagan campus.

Currently attending UBC students who wish to change campus must be in good academic standing and meet the minimum competitive admission average based on the last 30 credits1 and any program specific course requirements at the new campus.

Students on academic probation and those who have been required to discontinue from their faculty due to poor academic performance are not normally eligible to change campuses, but applications will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Students who wish to change campus must apply via the Applicant Service Centre using their Campus Wide Login (CWL) and pay a non-refundable application fee. The application is available within the “Re-admission/Change Program” menu option on the Applicant Service Centre.

Students may transfer a maximum of 60 credits applicable to the new program at the new campus unless registered in a special inter-campus program.

1Academic evaluations are based on the average of the most recent courses attempted, including any failed or repeated courses, to a maximum of 30 credits unless otherwise prescribed by the program to which a student is applying. In cases where counting back 30 credits lands in the middle of an academic term, the average of that term will be used for the remaining credits required to reach the total of 30.
