In accordance with UBC’s Tuition Consultation Policy, the university consults with students about proposed increases to tuition. This year we are implementing an approach based on student feedback and consultation with your elected student leaders.
The approach
- Enhanced engagement with student leaders: Between August and February, we will work directly with your elected student representatives in the AMS, GSS, and UBCSUO, who we will meet with to review university budget information, proposed tuition increases, and provide feedback.
- UBC Student Financial Experience Survey: A survey focused on understanding students’ financial experience and priorities.
This approach allows for more informed discussions with elected student leaders and provides a more in-depth understanding of students’ financial experiences and priorities.
How you can contribute
It is important for the university to hear from students to inform how UBC allocates funds to services, resources, and support. Please complete our UBC Student Financial Experience Survey, which will help us:
- Understand students’ priorities
- Inform the university budget
- Inform the Student Affordability Task Force Implementation Plan
Take the survey by November 4 — it takes about 5 minutes to complete, and all responses are confidential.
When you complete the survey, you’ll be entered into a weekly draw for a UBC hoodie or a choice of $75 gift cards.
This survey will be open until November 4, 2025.
