If you want to ultimately go to UBC med school it is better that you go to UBC, I saw this on their website
BC Residency Requirements
Preference is given to residents of British Columbia; however, a small number of out-of-province applicants are accepted each year.
A BC resident, for the MD Undergraduate Admissions purposes, is someone who has met one of the following criteria:
Has lived in BC for 24 continuous full months immediately prior to the application deadline; or
Has attended secondary school (grades 8 to 12 inclusive) in British Columbia, or attended for a minimum of three (3) years and had a permanent home in BC (secondary school transcripts must be submitted); or
Within the last five years has attended a university in BC for at least two years; or
Was born in British Columbia and attended a minimum of five years of school in BC. The applicant must also have resided in BC for at least one continuous year in the last ten, unless the applicant has been living and working overseas on a work visa or with the Armed Forces, and has been a resident in BC prior to entering the Armed Forces; or
Has attended residential secondary school (grades 8 to 12 inclusive) in BC, even if his/her permanent home is in another province (secondary school transcripts must be submitted); or
Has been a resident in BC for five years at any time for any reason and has resided in BC continuously for at least one year in the last ten; or
Is a resident-under any of the above terms-of the Yukon, NW Territories, or Nunavut.
NOTE: An applicant is NOT considered a resident of BC, for the MD Undergraduate Admissions purposes, if he or she is over 19 years of age and has never lived in BC, even if his or her parents have moved to BC. Unfortunately, having a BC Care Card and/or filing your income tax in BC does not automatically qualify you to meet our requirement at this time.
