Dormitory Information

In many of our programs, you’ll have the unique opportunity of living on a Canadian university campus.

Living in UVic’s dormitories is a great experience because everything that you need — classrooms, cafeterias, pubs, a movie theatre, a travel agency and many more facilities — are just a short walk from your room. You’ll be living with your classmates as well as Canadian Cultural Assistants, giving you an opportunity to practice English while learning about many other cultures.

The UVic campus is a 15 minute bus ride to downtown Victoria, making it easy for you to enjoy our beautiful city.

UVic dormitory accommodation includes:

  • a single room with a bed, desk, dresser, mirror, linens and free internet access
  • a cafeteria meal plan (two or three meals per day)
  • support of Cultural Assistant staff living in the dormitory
  • extra evening and weekend activities
