Royal Roads University - [RRU], Victoria, British Columbia - Accommodation

The dormitories are very well maintained. They are divided to two different buildings. Nixon is more expensive but provides a larger room with your own private bathroom and kitchen bar. The other dormitory is more affordable and also has private rooms but has shared kitchen and bathroom facilities on every floor. Each dormitory has a a security desk.

The program was interdisciplinary and applied. In addition, it was designed for working professionals and delivered distanced (for the full program or majority of it) so students could work and didn't have to stay in Victoria throughout their study period.

Short-term accommodation is available on campus but many options are available locally.

Gave me an opportunity to use my previous work experience as a qualifying factor as I had a huge gap in education.

Private room in a house with shared facilities costing CAD 550 after everything is included.

Affiliation with the government provided the basis for genuineness and good reputation. The affordability along with the unique programs and preferred courses helped me make up my mind for this university.

University has a building for a temporary stay. The international students can stay in this building for up to two weeks or until they find accommodation but the university charges 30-35 dollars per day and there is no food included in this. While staying on the campus for accommodation students should carry some easy-to-cook food as this building has a kitchen area with a microwave and refrigerator but no stoves. After landing in Victoria, students can find accommodations outside the campus but they have to make a list of their budget and requirements. The average cost of a single room is $600-$1000 and the cost also depends on the location and type of house.
