Student Housing | Okanagan

Residence living at UBC Okanagan supports you academically and socially, giving you opportunities to meet creative, intelligent people and develop friendships that will last you a lifetime.

Nestled in a quiet, pastoral setting just a short distance from downtown Kelowna, Lake Okanagan and the Kelowna International Airport, UBC Okanagan residences are an inspiring setting for studying, socializing and recreation.

Residence Advisors organize activities and learning opportunities throughout the year, so you will find out how to repair your bike, team up for a volleyball tournament and learn to study more effectively ... all without leaving your new home.

The campus community currently houses almost 1700 students in fully furnished single rooms, semi-suites, quad units, studios and one-bedroom apartments.

There's no question the "living in res" is about social life, but it is also about access. UBC Okanagan guarantees housing for many first year students.
