Accommodation overview
KPU has student housing support services. Most students live off-campus in Surrey, Langley, or Newton areas (CAD 850–1,150/month shared). Surrey's Indian community extensively supports new student arrivals through community and cultural networks.
Food & daily living
Surrey's Indian food infrastructure is exceptional — Punjabi Market on 128 Street is one of Canada's most celebrated South Asian commercial districts. Every South Asian cuisine, grocery chain, and cultural service is available within minutes of the KPU campus.
Campus & lifestyle
Surrey is BC's second-largest city and the heart of the province's Punjabi-speaking community. KPU's Surrey campus is directly adjacent to Surrey Central SkyTrain station. Shared student housing in Surrey runs CAD 850–1,150/month. Indian grocery superstores, gurdwaras, temples, and South Asian cultural organisations are embedded throughout the city.
Safety & student support
Surrey requires standard urban precautions. Whalley (near KPU Surrey campus) has historically higher crime rates than other Surrey areas — students should apply standard urban awareness practices. The KPU campus itself is well-secured. KPU's nursing program has academic advisors, clinical placement coordinators, and a well-developed international student support structure. The large Indian student body means strong peer networks and active Indian student associations.
