Student housing, childcare facility to be ready for OC Vernon students this fall
Students attending courses at the Okanagan College Vernon campus will have a new housing option this fall.
The college and the province announced that the first-ever student housing building at Okanagan College (OC) Vernon is nearly fully built with a ribbon cutting ceremony Friday, August 23.
The new building will be home to 101 students. There will be 83 single-occupant rooms that have their own washrooms and kitchens, three two-bedroom units with shared amenities, and three four-bedroom units which will also have shared washrooms and kitchens. Four of the one-bedroom units will be accessible, and so will one of the two-bedroom units.
