Two years in one of Canada's most beautiful cities — where every weekend is an adventure and lifelong friendships are made.
This valley offers a vibrant mix of forests, vineyards, orchards, lakes, creeks, world-class ski hills and golf courses, and a stunning blend of beautiful scenery. While the Okanagan has many attractions, including its weather, it is the warmth of its people that most visitors remember.
Halfway between Calgary and Vancouver, Vernon is perfectly situated — just 25 minutes from an international airport.
Engage with your classmates. Our class sizes enable lifelong friendships to develop as you work, study, and play together. Our close community is one of the wonderful benefits of OV — just ask our Alumni!
Meaningful connections develop through both college-sponsored events and our community partnerships. See the difference community makes.
The city of Vernon provides a small town lifestyle experience, with a population of about 40,000. We are located right in the heart of downtown Vernon, within easy walking distance of restaurants, cafes, shopping, accommodations, fitness and recreation, and cultural facilities.
Okanagan Lake, Kalamalka Lake and Swan Lake are all within a 10-minute drive of the city centre.
Vernon is BC's Trails Capital — with 500km of trails, three pristine lakes, world-class golf, and an adventure around every corner. Your two years here won't just be about massage therapy.
Students want the highest education, not the highest cost of living. Vernon still offers affordable rental options. Many students share accommodation — with the added benefit of a built-in study partner!
