Overview

Located amid the breathtaking beauty of southern British Columbia, Selkirk College is home to 80-plus nationally recognized programs serving more than 2,800 full-time learners in certificate, diploma, bachelor's degree, co-operative education and continuing education programs every year.

With eight campus locations in six different West Kootenay and Boundary communities, Selkirk College offers outcomes for in-demand employment, credit transfer to a multitude of universities for degree completion and enhanced training to further career opportunities.

Selkirk College acknowledges our respect for and deep gratitude to the First Nations of the West Kootenay and Boundary regions: the Sinixt (Lakes), the Syilx (Okanagan), the Ktunaxa, and the Secwepemc (Shuswap) Peoples on whose traditional territories we are honoured to operate.

Tenth Street Campus (Nelson)
Tucked up above a residential neighbourhood, surrounded by forests and overlooking Kootenay Lake, the Tenth Street Campus is home to the School of Hospitality & Tourism and offers programming in the School of the Arts, including Contemporary Music & Technology, Web Development and Digital Arts.

International students are considered on a case-by-case basis. There can be some additional requirements, depending on the program you are applying to.
Students are required to submit their original transcripts from their last attended academic institutions. If they are not in English, then submit the translated copies of the same along with the originals.

Applicants must be 18 years old at the time of the beginning of the course.

Opportunities

Accomodation

Student Housing

Enhance your college experience—live in student housing! We have housing options at our Castlegar Campus and our Tenth Street Campus in Nelson. Student housing is located within a five-minute walk to classes, athletic facilities, libraries, dining facilities and outdoor recreation.

We are committed to providing a safe and accessible environment that reduces barriers to education. If you have accessibility needs or a documented disability, we encourage you to make an appointment with Accessibility Services by calling the Welcome Centre as soon as possible to allow sufficient time to establish and implement supports and/or accommodations.

Off-Campus Housing
There are a variety of options for students to find housing off-campus!

The housing market in the Kootenay and Boundary regions is very competitive. Make sure to have your contact and housing references ready before making any housing inquiries. Landlords may ask personal questions, such as if you have a job and or where you attend school.
Move-in dates are normally the first day of each month. Tenants normally must tell their landlord one month before they are planning on moving out.
Landlords will typically ask new tenants to pay a damage deposit. This fee is usually half the cost of one month's rent and will be returned upon moving out, providing that the rented unit is in the same condition as when you moved in.
Double-check which campus your program is located on. Although applications such as Google Maps will give you an estimated travel length, weather across the four seasons can dramatically impact the length of a commute. Make sure to give yourself more than enough time to drive to your destination.

Student Support

Selkirk College is for everyone. We strive to create a culture of compassion that considers physical health and wellness, mental health, acceptance, social justice and belonging. We're here to support you and help you succeed–in and out of the classroom.
