Over 50 Canadian universities gather in Vancouver for free info event

The journey from high school to university is a big deal, and secondary students across the Lower Mainland are starting to consider the diverse post-secondary options available to them across Canada. It can be overwhelming and stressful, but fear not – a team of representatives from over 50 Canadian universities coast-to-coast are descending on Vancouver to help you learn, discover and ultimately find your right fit in post-secondary.

Students, parents or anyone else interested in attending are welcome to visit all the school representatives at their first-ever public event in downtown Vancouver. This is your chance to collect materials, discuss admissions and learn about residences, scholarships and all the other pieces of the puzzle to get you to that all-important first day on campus.
