All students writing exams outside of the Vancouver campus have to apply to write their exams. A separate application is required for each exam.
An off-campus exam is an option if you have Standing Deferred (SD) or supplemental exams and you're located outside Metro Vancouver (north of Squamish and east of Chilliwack) during that period.
All fees are calculated per paper.

If you can't write at a Partner Exam Centre, you'll have to apply to write your exam at another location and find an invigilator for your exam.
See the invigilator guidelines to see the types of invigilators UBC accepts.
We accept invigilators from:
In certain countries where no Embassy or British Council is available, we accept invigilators from:
The invigilator information in the Exam Application serves as a contact for Enrolment Services. Sometimes exam locations will not release the name of the person who will invigilate your exam on the day of, or the exact invigilator will be determined closer to the exam time.
In this case, it is sufficient to enter the details of the person at your exam location whom you are corresponding with to arrange your date and time. Examples include: a manager/supervisor of a test centre, library director, Canadian Embassy employee, British Council coordinator, etc. Ensure this person can receive your paper copy exam.
Late applications will be reviewed on a case by case basis. Contact student.exams@ubc.ca for more information.
No. Other Location students are expected to direct their invigilator to contact student.exams@ubc.ca with questions.
All student exam schedules are listed in your local time.
In order to receive a refund, you must notify Enrolment Services that you are cancelling your off-campus exam at least 4 weeks before the exam period starts. If you contact us within 4 weeks of the exam period, we can cancel your off-campus exam, but you will not receive a refund for the exam application fee.
If you are unable to attend your exam sitting for any unforeseen reason, your exam will be recorded as a “no-show” and returned to your instructor. It will be your responsibility to contact your Faculty Advising Office to apply for a Deferred Standing.
If you're an undergraduate student, please contact your Enrolment Services Advisor directly. To find your advisor’s contact information, log into your Student Services Centre (SSC) and select “UBC Contacts” under Personal Info.
Graduate, postgraduate, and all other students can contact an Enrolment Services Advisor by calling 604 822 9836 or submitting your question through the online form.
