The top game design school in Canada is right here in Vancouver

Gaming is bigger than ever right now, with the likes of League of Legends, Fornite, and Hearthstone: Heroes of Warcraft being some of the most popular choices among players.

Are you a true gamer who devotes your spare time to competing against your fellow players? And if so, have you ever thought about turning your passion into a career?

Luckily, you don’t need to spend hours researching how to do this. The answer is waiting for you right here in the city, at LaSalle College Vancouver.

This media arts school was named the #1 game design school in Canada in 2019 by the Princeton Review. In fact, LaSalle College Vancouver has been recognized as one of the top 10 game design schools in North America — and #1 in Canada — every year since the rankings started being published a decade ago.

Here’s why LaSalle College Vancouver is the premier media arts school in Western Canada.
