Visiting Students

Students registered in graduate degree programs at international universities may apply to come to UBC through the UBC Go Global Student Exchange Program or Visiting International Research Student (VIRS) Program. Graduate students at any of our Go Global exchange partner universities can also apply to come to UBC as an exchange student.

A Visiting International Research Student (VIRS) is an international student conducting research full-time at UBC, under the supervision of a UBC faculty member.
