UBC’s Coordinated Arts Program (CAP) is a dynamic cohort program for first-year students that helps make the transition to university so much smoother. In CAP, students enrol in one of five learning communities or “streams.” Each stream offers a different cluster of courses in the humanities, social sciences, and creative and performing arts disciplines. Students choose the cluster that includes the themes and classes that interest them most and get an opportunity to learn from supportive faculty with a core group of peers. Since 2005, thousands of new UBC students have made CAP their “home base” for discovering the knowledge, experiences, friendships, faculty networks, and advising support that will guide the rest of their time at UBC.
