Accept your offer
You did it! First things first – accept your offer and pay your acceptance deposit before the date indicated in your letter of admission to save your spot.
Conditional offers
Your spot at UBC is subject to the conditions outlined in your letter of admission. It’s important that you maintain your grades and submit your final documents to confirm your offer. Any significant changes in your academic standing could lead to your offer being reassessed.
If you applied to two degrees
If you’re still waiting to hear back about your first choice, check the Applicant Service Centre regularly for status updates. If you receive offers to both your first- and second-choice degrees, you can choose either one.
Deferring your offer
Under certain circumstances, UBC will consider deferring your offer of admission by one year (or two years for mandatory military service) if you’re joining UBC as a first-year undergraduate. For more information, review our deferral eligibility requirements and deadlines.
Advisor tip
“As an enrolment services advisor, I wear many hats. I specialize in financial advising, but I can also answer questions about undergraduate admissions, fees, tuition, registration, financial support, exams, graduation, transcripts, and so much more. If you have a question I can’t answer, I likely know the person or department who can.”
Claudia, UBC advisor
