The Places You’ll Go
Whether you take a course online or on campus, at
the UBC English Language Institute (ELI), you receive
a quality English language education you would expect
from a Canadian university – and one that is ranked in
the top five per cent in the world.
At the ELI, you’ll learn from a team of caring,
experienced instructors, discover endless
opportunities to learn about other cultures and make
lifelong friendships. On campus, you become part of
the UBC and Vancouver communities in one of the
most beautiful, liveable cities in the world.
When you finish your program with the ELI, perhaps
you’ll continue your education. Or you’ll find your
dream job. Maybe you’ll travel. One thing is for sure:
you’ll go places.
Vancouver, Canada — A City
on Nature’s Doorstep
With its stunning views, limitless mountains and ocean,
mild climate and friendly people, Vancouver is known
as one of the best places to live in the world. We rank
high in safety, standards of living, education, culture and
environment. Vancouver is also one of the most diverse
cities in Canada, with 52 per cent of the population
speaking a first language other than English.
UBC — A Place among the
World’s Best
Study at one of the top-ranked universities in the world.
Not only is UBC among the top 40 research institutions
globally, it’s ranked as the most international university
in North America. Students come here to pursue bold
thinking and learn, grow and develop.
The ELI partners closely with the UBC Faculty of
Education, one of the leading faculties of its kind in
the world. Together, we bring you innovative English
language learning, based on research and the latest
teaching methods.

academic and life skills. You’ll gain new perspectives on our world, and an appreciation for other cultures. You’ll
