Sauder is upgrading and modernizing its IT infrastructure in order to better serve students, staff, and faculty. These upgrades provide enhanced security and control of personal information by connecting Sauder Computer Lab accounts to CWL accounts.
Your Sauder Computer Lab account will need to be activated in order to use the computer lab and printing services. Activation could take anywhere from one hour, in most cases, to twenty-four hours.
To learn how to activate your account, please visit http://www.sauder.ubc.ca/lts/labs.
**Please note that this should be done as soon as possible, especially if you are taking the pre-core courses as you will be working in the computer labs in some classes. If you arrive at a computer lab without having activated your account, you will be unable to access a computer, so please ensure you activate your account before August 10th.
*You may have noticed that activating your account is one of the items on your MBA student checklist. Please complete this item as soon as possible to avoid any unnecessary complications when you enter the program.*
Thank you,

Dear Incoming International MBA Students,
This post is to regretfully advise you of our recent decision to cancel the ISP Program this year due to extremely low enrollment.
Unfortunately, for a variety of reasons including work, visa delays and financial worries, many students are unable to register in the program and we feel that such a small class would not offer the rich learning experience that you and your fellow ISP classmates deserve.
We sincerely apologize for having to cancel the program – it certainly was a difficult decision and one that we weren’t expecting to have to do as we have been running this program successfully for more than 10 years now. We would like to assure you, however, that international student programming will continue to take place as part of the BCC Career Development Programming throughout the regular MBA Program, and this will be free of charge. You will certainly be advised of these workshops as they become available.
Staff from the MBA Office will also be putting together an MBA Program Campus Tour for incoming students (international and domestic) in the week before Pre-Core as an option for students who may be in Vancouver at this time (again, this is free of charge). Once we have the tour details finalized, we will release them to your class and let you know how you can register to participate.
Thank you for your attention to this message and please feel free to contact askmba@sauder.ubc.ca if you have any questions or concerns.
Warm regards,
The MBA & ECM Programs Office
