VIU's student residences offer comfortable, convenient and cost-effective on-campus housing
for students from all over the world.
Our residences are situated in a village-like environment near the heart of VIU's Nanaimo
campus, close to classrooms, cafeterias and recreational facilities.
We believe that residence living is more than just a place to stay. Our goal is to enhance student's
personal and academic growth.
Explore our website and learn more about living in residence. We look forward to meeting you in the future!
Short-term accommodation for visitors and conference guests from May to August
Parking Changes
Starting Fall 2010, parking at the student residences will be managed by Robbins Parking via the parking office on campus-Building 315. Permits must be purchased at the parking office and cannot be purchased on-line.
Robbins chooses to issue tickets to vehicles in violation rather than towing if at all possible. In some instances however, it is necessary to tow vehicles immediately such as when a vehicle is: parked in a fire lane, parked in a Handicap stall without a permit, or parked in an employee lot with no permit or a student permit.
Additionally, if a vehicle is found to have 3 or more outstanding Vancouver Island University parking violations, the vehicle will be towed.
