UFV campus card

If you are currently registered in at least one course for the Fall semester and would like to get your campus card before the start of classes, you can. Just make sure to:

  • bring one piece of government photo ID,
  • have your UFV student number ready
  • be photo ready

Check the campus card website to find out their hours of operation, and more information.

 

SUS U-pass

If you are planning on using BC Transit or municipal recreation centres in Abbotsford, Mission, and Chilliwack, you may also be able to get your U-pass sticker from the Student Union Society before the start of classes.

Check the SUS U-pass website to find out their hours of operation, and more information.

 

Textbooks

Some instructors provide a list of required course materials in advance so you can buy your textbooks and other items before classes begin. You have two options: you can check the Bookstore website for each of your courses and purchase the materials online, or you can visit the Bookstore in person.

Whichever option you choose, try to plan your bookstore visit or online order pick-up on the same day as your tour.
