Beatty Street is not a "campus"
We have moved within the 548/550/552/554 Beatty Street
complex. Because Vancouver University's consortium office and registry is listed
by directories etc around the world as located at 548 Beatty, packages will
continue to arrive there for many years and the new reception at 548 (Bardel
Corp) generously accepts large-package (boxed) items for us. But small
envelopes are best sent by ordinary mail to:
Vancouver University Consortium/Registry,
Lobby Mailbox 5,
550 Beatty Street,
Vancouver V6B 2L3, Canada.
We welcome visitors to the consortium office/registry,
but they must telephone 604-689-0905 or email vanu@vcn.bc.ca for an appointment.
The Beatty complex housed reception, board-room,
consortium downtown classes, etc for two decades, inclusive of.
· the Office of President and
University-affiliate Services (OPUS);
· the Extension / External Degrees
process registry, Learning Credentials Credits Bank (LCCB);
· and reference resources, books and
materials, both physical and electronic ( Virtual
College ).
548/550/552/554 Beatty, 119/117A W Pender, and 174 W
Cordova (Whetham College historic site) - all within a block or so of each
other - have been past teaching and administrative locations of what is now
Vancouver University during more than a century.
Pre-arranged visitor appointment - call 604-689-0905 - is advised for all the
foregoing.

affiliate, and collaborating colleges and institutes in Canada, the USA - and
