UBC Okanagan – Global Engagement Office (International Student Advising):
The teams who support prospective and current student communications are reaching out across a variety of channels to let impacted students know about the process for obtaining a PAL and applying for a study permit.
This effort will persist over the coming weeks as we continue to connect with students obtaining admission offers ahead of the acceptance deadline.
