In 1975, students across British Columbia saw the need to work together with a single, united movement in order to be an effective force for provincial and national change. Today, the Federation brings together over 170,000 students from 14 universities, colleges and institutes in every region of BC.
Together, these students advocate for a well-funded system of post-secondary education in BC that is affordable and accessible for all students.
The British Columbia Federation of Students is a provincial alliance of 14 university and college students’ unions - learn more about our members.
