Student services
- International Student Services (ISS) provides support for international students studying at UVic, and coordinates programs for all UVic students interested in studying abroad.
Housing services
- You have three choices when looking for housing in Victoria: homestay, on-campus and off-campus. In deciding which option is best for you, consider cost, convenience, and your lifestyle.
- For example, many international students choose the homestay option when they first arrive in Canada, but then choose to rent a house or an apartment with roommates later once they’ve familiarized themselves with Victoria.
Library services
- Our libraries—the McPherson Library in the William C. Mearns Centre for Learning, the Diana M. Priestly Law Library in the Fraser Building, and the Curriculum Library in the MacLaurin Building —contain a wealth of information.
ICT services
University Systems helps new and existing faculty make the most of technology on campus including:
- getting started with a NetLink ID
- purchasing the best computers for your needs
- setting up email or Airnet for your mobile devices
- setting up electronic courses in CourseSpaces
- webcasting technology for your classroom
Medical services
- University Health Services (UHS) provides a full service primary health clinic for students, and coordinates healthy student and campus initiatives.
- We encourage students to use UHS as their primary point of health care while at UVic.
Campus life
- The University of Victoria is easy to get to and easy to get around. Connected to downtown Victoria by several major bus and bicycle routes, the campus offers ample parking and an accessible and pedestrian-friendly environment.
- If you're visiting the area, the main UVic campus (15 minutes from downtown Victoria by car) offers overnight accommodation and meeting spaces.
Sports facilities
UVic students are above-average users of their athletic facilities when compared to students across Canada.
To accommodate their needs, UVic offers a wide range of athletic and recreation facilities, also available to faculty, staff and the community. These include the:
