Cross-campus registration allows undergraduate students on the Vancouver campus to take courses at the Okanagan campus. A maximum of 15 credits can generally be taken as a cross-campus registrant - this is reviewed on a case-by case basis.
Eligibility for cross-campus registration
The information below applies to Arts and Science courses. Requests for other courses will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by the governing faculty or school.

- Completed a minimum of 24 credits, with grades
- No failed courses in the most recent 24 credits
- A minimum overall average of 68% on their most recent 24 credits

Cross-campus registration does not apply to:
