Why Choose Corpus Christi? 

Our Location Offers the Best of Both Worlds

Small Campus Just Steps from UBC  

We offer an intimate, student-centered campus, just steps from UBC. Along with formal classrooms, study halls, a computer lab, and a full library, we have informal student spaces for study and socializing, including a café and an outdoor plaza. Students who choose to reside at UBC are eligible to apply for residence at nearby Carey Hall or St. Andrew's Hall. 
 
Corpus Christi College is located on the campus of Saint Mark’s College, which is officially affiliated with UBC. All of our full-time students are enrolled in a special course–focussing on research methods, study skills, academic writing, and more – offered by Saint Mark’s. This means our students are able to enjoy many of the services and amenities UBC has to offer, including membership in the Alma Mater Society (UBC Student Union), U-Pass, Health and Dental Insurance, access to UBC libraries, and more. Many of our students also supplement their Corpus Christi studies with UBC courses taken through Access Studies. It truly is the best of both worlds.

Our Programs

Our Programs Are Accredited and Fully Transferable 

 Corpus Christi College offers first- and second-years university courses in Arts, Business, and Science. All of our courses are equivalent to those offered by other colleges and universities across Canada and the United States. Up to 60 credits taken at Corpus Christi can be directly transferred to most post-secondary institutions, and applied towards a future Bachelor’s degree at 4-year institution.  
 
Students typically study with us for one or two years. We have been given the authority to grant two-year Associate of Arts Degrees to eligible students, which looks great on a resume and gives students a higher chance of gaining acceptance at their university of choice to complete their Bachelor’s degree. Along with our rigorous academic programs, Corpus offers opportunities in community outreach, service learning, and leadership development. Within the College’s nurturing community, our students become leaders both in the classroom and in the world.
