Marta graciously provided a 'Final Viewbook Insert 2021.pdf' they created that is intended to be used by high school counsellors and provided to students along with their preferred university view book (UBC Digital View Book).  The intention is that the student will benefit from what the university view book has to offer and the additional insert provides some basic information about how to apply and where to go if you have questions.
