2026 UBC Black Student Orientation: 
Find Your People, Find Your Place

Starting university comes with a lot of newness – new classes, new people, new spaces, and plenty to figure out. The UBC Black Student Space (BSS) is here to make one part of that transition a little easier!

You’re invited to the 2026 UBC Black Student Orientation: Find Your People, Find Your Place on Thursday, September 10, from 4:30–7:00 PM at UBC’s Black Student Space (5960 Student Union Boulevard).

This event is an opportunity to meet other incoming Black students, connect with upper-year students, staff, faculty, and student groups, and learn about the people and resources available to support you throughout your time at UBC. Whether you already know people at UBC or are arriving without knowing anyone, you are welcome here. Come meet some new faces, have dinner with us, and start finding your community on campus.
