The University of Canada West (UCW) is a private, for-profit university located in British Columbia, Canada. Established in 2004, it offers undergraduate and graduate programs in business and management. Unlike public universities, which receive government funding, UCW operates on a tuition-driven model.
UCW is recognized by the British Columbia Ministry of Advanced Education and holds accreditation from relevant educational bodies. Its programs cater primarily to domestic and international students seeking career-focused education. As a private institution, UCW has greater flexibility in program design and admissions but lacks the public funding that reduces tuition costs at public universities.
