UBC Bound!
Congratulations! You’re coming to UBC
This summer, UBC Bound! will be welcoming new UBC students from cities across Asia. It’s a great opportunity for new students to meet alumni and current students in their region, hear their stories, pick up some tips for adjusting to university life, and receive insider information from the people who have already been there and back.
UBC Bound! introduces students to the global UBC alumni community, and helps you connect with the slice of UBC that already exists in your hometown or country. Your local UBC community will be there for you during your student years, and when you graduate and become an alum!
Your Global UBC Community
Wherever you may be, UBC is closer than you think! You can benefit from local alumni UBC contacts and online resources.
alumni UBC Contacts
alumni UBC has a global alumni network of volunteers worldwide who represent UBC wherever they may be. Reach out to them and start building your UBC network!
