Accomodation

Living On Campus
Welcome to your home away from home. Living in residence helps ensure a smooth transition to University. We believe residence life is about more than accommodation: it’s building community, having fun, and making the grade.

Living in residence is a great option, especially during your first year. Studies show that students who live on campus are more likely to have a successful academic experience. Why? In a word: access. As a resident, you are steps away from classes; professors’ offices; student services; social, exercise and recreational spaces; study rooms and academic programming. You have a built-in community that enhances academic performance and social success. You’ll make lifelong friends, find study partners, develop tolerance and fine-tune your interpersonal skills.

Residents belong to the largest student club on campus, the Organization of Residence Students (ORS), which provides support and plans fun activities for residents. Each section in our single student residences has at least one Residence Assistant (RA) — first-year residences have two — who upholds and enforces the policies in the Residence Community Handbook, coordinates fun social events (think Residence Wars), educational opportunities and everyday interactions like section dinners. Our Residence Assistants are trained in emergency response, standard first aid, and mental health first aid. 

Living off Campus
One of the benefits of living in a city divided by a river is that the entire west side, where uLethbridge is located, features extensive off-campus housing close to campus. Since the majority of our students live on the west side, it’s practically an extension of residence. When you’re out and about, you’re bound to run into other students (or even your professors) at the local grocery stores, restaurants or parks. The north and south sides of Lethbridge also feature many housing options, as well as the majority of the city’s shopping, restaurants and entertainment venues. The best part? No matter where you choose to live, you’re never more than a 15-minute drive from uLethbridge main campus.

There a numerous off-campus housing options available to students, including apartments, townhouses, bedrooms in houses, basement suites and more. Visit the uLethbridge Off Campus Housing website for housing listings in the city of Lethbridge.

Scholarships

The university offers a $500-$5000 range of scholarships, which students need to apply for directly from their Bridge Portal account after receiving the offer letter. The Bridge account will reflect various rewards as per the category; the student himself needs to choose the appropriate category to apply to.

Students can get scholarships as per the below range, but they will apply as per the following:

• 60–70% students can get the scholarship in range of $500–$700.
• 70–75% students can get the scholarship in range of $700–$1000.
• 75–85% students can get a scholarship in range of $1500

Note: Students cannot apply for scholarships with their predicted scores.
