Clark College

What are the popular events and traditions at Clark College?

Clark College's recurring events include the Sakura Festival and the Clark College Jazz Festival. The Sakura Festival celebrates Japanese culture and the campus's cherry trees, while the jazz festival brings student musicians together for performance and adjudication.

These events connect the college with the wider Vancouver community as well as its own students. Exhibitions, performances and literary programming provide other opportunities to attend or participate during the academic year. Schedules and formats can change, so an event's recurrence does not mean it takes place on the same date or in the same form every year.

What are the student housing and dining options at Clark College?

Clark College does not operate undergraduate residence halls. Students who need housing arrange it independently off campus; admission to Clark does not include a housing placement or a residential meal plan.

That makes location and transportation central to a housing decision. Before signing a lease, students should compare the travel time and cost to the campus where their classes meet, especially if a program uses more than one Clark location. On-campus food options may be useful during the day, but they are not a substitute for a residential dining plan. The living-expense figure used in a financial-aid budget is an estimate for planning, not a housing or dining price charged by the college.
