Housing Options

Eligibility

Long-Stay

You are only eligible for student housing if you have been fully accepted into a full-time, 12-weeks or more cohort-based BCIT program.

Unfortunately, at this time we cannot accommodate students taking flexible learning courses. This includes those enrolled in multiple flexible learning courses that lead to a full-time enrollment status.

Short-Stay

You are eligible to live in short-stay apprentice housing at BCIT if you’ve been accepted into a full-time BCIT apprenticeship training program that is 12 weeks or shorter.

Priority Access

Priority considerations are made for the following groups:

  • Indigenous students
  • Students who were formerly youth-in-care
  • Students with disabilities that impact their housing needs (as verified by BCIT Accessibility Services)

Housing access is prioritized but not guaranteed for priority groups.

Accessibility

Student Housing supports students with a variety of accessibility needs. We have suites that are equipped with:

  • In-suite washer and dryer
  • Wheelchair-accessible washroom, bedroom, and kitchen
  • Strobe light fire alarm
