University Dean

We chose the University of British Columbia (UBC) because it offers many different programs.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Welcome to the University of British Columbia. Being a well known University, we have many different campuses. Our Vancouver campus the most popular and also our largest campus. It was founded by Henry Marshall Tory in 1915.

UBC is mostly known for its Science programs but also offers many other programs. We offer more than 220 programs just for an undergraduate degree! No matter what, you'll find the program you're looking for due to the vast amount of programs.

UBC is not only academic, but we also offer scholarships for arts and athletics. Getting into a university like this is tough and is costly, but we assure you that it is worth the time and effort! UBC more than a campus, it is a community offering gyms, museums and a selection of restaurants. Even if you do enjoy sports but aren't there to succeed in them, we offer opportunities to join different sport teams, and clubs.

Considering UBC is like a small town, we have various housing options. If you're looking for something nice and spacious, UBC has apartments and condos, but if you're looking for a cheaper and closer residence to the school we offer dorms. Choosing to live in the UBC area offers you the chance to meet new people and experience independence.

UBC offers summer programs (May-August) and winter programs (September-April). The easiest way to apply is online. To apply to a summer program, deadlines are due January 15th and winter program deadlines are due on February 3rd. To be accepted into this prestigious school, you need to have at least a 70% average (or higher for many programs) & at least a 70% in grade 11 & 12 English. You will also need a completion of the specific courses required, depending on the program you want to get into. The costs vary from $4000-$16000, depending on the program you're applying for (textbooks & living costs are additional).

Interim

During these five weeks in planning I think I've done great. I feel like I put effort into my work and manage my own behaviour when something needs to be done. I also have never been late or absent and I think my attendance is great. Apart from being in time, I'm also ready with whatever I need and ready to work and hand in all assignments in on time. I feel as though I've been a great student but I also have many areas where I need to improve on such as helping my peers. Although I do help answer any questions I feel as though I can do much more by commenting and helping others once I'm finished my work. Overall, I feel like I am trying my best and working hard to finish and understand work given but I also feel that I need to involve myself more with the class by helping others or asking for help.   Work wise I understand any communication given and can use that information to help myself. So far I like Planning 10 and hope to learn a lot more over the semester!
