The University of Victoria (UVic) is a public university located in British Columbia, Canada. While Kaplan is a private education provider that offers pathway programs for international students, its partnership with UVic does not change the university’s public status. UVic remains publicly funded and governed, with Kaplan providing preparatory courses to help students meet admission requirements.
Programs delivered through Kaplan are designed to support entry into UVic’s degree programs, which are accredited and recognized as part of the public university system. The collaboration enhances accessibility but does not alter UVic’s classification as a public institution.
