University Canada West is a progressive, private university growing from strong beginnings. With a campus in Vancouver, and offering online and accelerated program delivery options, we provide a range of educational choices.

Learning at University Canada West is supported in small, interactive settings. Learning experiences are personalized - we continually seek to be flexible and responsive to individual and collective student needs.

Our faculty are committed to quality education. They are highly accomplished teachers and leaders in their disciplines. Writing and Learning Coaches at this University are unique and significantly augment our courses and programs. In every course, in every semester, our extraordinary team of university staff will provide  superior student service.

Our diverse populations of undergraduate and graduate students are engaged and ambitious learners, and, following convocation, our graduates can access solid careers, or advance in their organizations, or successfully change careers.

We understand that students' lives are very full - and often very challenging. We respect the investment of time and resources that each student makes and we take seriously our responsibility to provide high caliber post-secondary studies.

Thank you for your interest in University Canada West. I extend a warm welcome and best wishes as you undertake and continue your studies here.
