Quest University Canada

(Squamish, Canada)

At Quest, we started from scratch to build a university centered on you. Your classes are all seminars with fewer than twenty students. You take one class at a time - a new intellectual adventure each month. You sample many realms of knowledge, and then build your own major. You use our spectacular natural environment as an extension of our classrooms. You question everything.

We did - and created a transformative education for students from around the world.

Quest is located in the coastal mountain community of Squamish, British Columbia, equidistant from Vancouver and Whistler, host cities of the 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The University's 60-acre campus borders on Garibaldi Provincial Park, a protected wilderness area with miles of hiking and mountain biking trails. Classrooms and student housing overlook the rugged peaks and valleys of the Tantalus Mountains and Howe Sound, Canada's southernmost fjord. These natural surroundings provide a dramatic and inspiring backdrop to the academic and social activities on campus.
