Campus Life

With campuses in New Westminster and Coquitlam, Douglas College puts you right in the mix of Metro Vancouver life. Both locations are easily accessible by public transportation, making your commute simple. Between classes, you’ll find students hanging out in the libraries, collaborating in modern labs, or grabbing a workout at the campus recreational centers.

New Westminster, where the main campus is located, is teeming with historic spots, arts venues, parks, and cultural events. Coquitlam, on the other hand, offers a blend of urban life and nature, including large parks and community recreation centers.

Student Life

Life at Douglas College happens just as much outside the classroom as it does inside. It’s easy to find your "crew" here, whether you’re joining a club, stepping into a leadership role, or running for student government with the Douglas Students’ Union. Moving to a new country is a big jump, so Douglas College focuses on making sure you feel supported, from career coaching to wellness resources and fun intramural sports. These experiences help international students build friendships, skills, and networks while studying in Canada.

Housing

As of writing, Douglas College does not offer on-campus residence services. Many international students find housing near campus through homestays or shared rentals in New Westminster, Coquitlam, or nearby Vancouver neighborhoods. These options allow students to live close to transit and daily amenities while enjoying the communities around the college. Douglas College can also support students in finding the best accommodation option for their needs and budget.
