The official 2027 page gives the registration cutoffs as noon without specifying their timezone. Its exact table above accompanies general guidance of six weeks before classes for residence and two weeks for commuters; residence may fill sooner. Residents arrive the Sunday before classes and depart the Saturday afterward. Opening is February 2 at 9 a.m. Pacific Time. The CAD $500 deposit, May 1 balance payment and required information package within 48 hours are separate enrollment obligations.

Financial aid: The President Bursary page still identifies its closed summer 2026 cycle. Its eligibility includes Canadian citizenship or permanent residence, attendance at a British Columbia high school in grade 11 or after finishing grade 10, specified 80% academic thresholds, lower household income and parents or caregivers without a university degree. Historical awards could cover tuition and, for limited residence places, meals and accommodation. A 2027 bursary window remains unknown.
