Graduate Studies Welcome and Reception
Tuesday, September 3, 2–4 pm

Our Fall 2013 graduate studies orientation open house and student reception will take place on September 3, 2013, 2–4 pm, at the Highland Pub, Burnaby campus.

If you're heading up to campus just for this event and don't have a campus parking pass, we recommend taking the bus, as pay parking is very difficult to find on the first day of classes.

Reserve your seat online.
