Accommodation at the University of British Columbia

UBC offers you several options for on-campus accommodation. They range from a private bedroom in a four-bedroom apartment to suites with a bedroom, bath, TV and kitchenette.

To reserve a space, you must contact one of the three facility listed below. Reserve early. After a certain date (depending on the facility) spaces not reserved will be released to the public. At that point, we will no longer be able to guarantee you a spot.

To make a booking, simply call the facility of your choice, and inform it that you are coming for the Vancouver International Song Institute. They will reserve your room at our arranged rates. You will need a credit card to confirm your stay.

Be sure to inform us at info@songinstitute.ca of your accommodation choice.
