Partner Universities

Forming partnerships with other institutes benefits students in many ways. The most notable is the fee structure for the exchange semester. Students participating in an exchange with a partner institute will normally be assessed fees at the domestic rate, which is a considerable savings in many cases.

Students should note that exchange opportunities are not limited to just the institutes that have signed partnership agreements with BCIT. Most universities accept visiting students from other countries. While we not be able to offer the same fee arrangements, the School of Business International Exchange Office will happily assist a student in applying for exchange with a recognized institute of their choice.
