Since 1993, more than a thousand UBC graduate students have taken advantage of the College\u2019s unique combination of west-coast living conditions, extracurricular academic programs, and broad array of social, artistic and recreational opportunities. As members of \u201ca dynamic community of scholars dedicated to the multi-disciplinary ideal\u201d (Cecil Green, founder), residents of the College enrich their own intellectual lives and bring insights from cross-disciplinary and extracurricular conversations to bear on the work they do in their home departments and programs.<\/p>\n<p>The College provides <strong>accommodations for around 85 graduate students <\/strong>at the master\u2019s and doctoral levels, and another <strong>15 places are held for postdoctoral scholars and visiting faculty<\/strong>. The maximum length of residency for members varies by program, and ranges from one to four years. No distinction is made between \u201cprofessional\u201d and \u201cacademic\u201d programs; students in the Juris Doctor program are also eligible. Residency is offered incrementally in 12-month leases (\u201chousing contract\u201d), typically beginning in September.<\/p>\n<p><a style=\"font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-weight: 400; color: #16a085;\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/lfsgrads\/files\/2022\/02\/Recruitment_FastTrack_Grad-Advisor_Letter-22-23.pdf\">Recruitment_FastTrack_Grad-Advisor_Letter-22-23<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Should you have any questions about the College\u2019s membership process, please contact me at <a href=\"mailto:gc.membership@ubc.ca\">gc.membership@ubc.ca<\/a>.
