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.
Overview
Eligibility for cross-campus registration
The information below applies to undergraduate programs and courses.
To be considered for registration at the Okanagan campus, Vancouver undergraduate students must have:
- 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
- Satisfied all prerequisites for the course requested
Cross-campus registration does not apply to graduate students, or students switching to an Okanagan degree program.

- Switching to an Okanagan degree program: To transfer campuses completely, you can apply for a change in campus or faculty through your Student Service Centre (SSC).
