They offer a variety of services but the best one would be the 'eh-pod', which is a 24 hour accessible study room where we have private rooms that we can book and group study in and lots of computers and print stations if needed, along with fast wifi, drinking water and vending machines.

Rent and living expenses in Vancouver are sky-high!! Around 1000 CAD would get you a single room in Vancouver. Public transport is very good. For students in public universities, we have a U-pass which gives us unlimited travel when school is in session, otherwise its 140 dollars for a 2-zone pass, or 180 for a 3-zone pass.

I lived on campus in a study dorm. Lots of people in very small space but luckily our schedules mixed well and everyone was mostly respectable of public spaces. 2 washers and 2 dryers for 48 people to share was nonsense and typically meant hopong you get lucky but rarely actually getting lucky.

I had heard that bcit's gis program was great, and it was only 9 months of study with work placement to get practical experience in the working field. Of the 3 schools in canada that offered the decent gis degree, bcit was my prefered option to moving to the other side of canada for coggs.

I currently reside on campus in the provided student housing which is a supportive and positive living environment that offers a comfortable living space and promotes participation in group social activities.

It has always been my dream to move to vancouver, and BCIT is a reputable college that offers a prestigious marketing course as well as on campus student housing. The school was reccommended to me by a former employer.
