Ordinary Resident of British Columbia
For the purposes of delivering Distributed Learning services, a student is resident in the province of British Columbia if the
student is ordinarily resident in the province and the guardian of the student is ordinarily resident in British Columbia.
Notwithstanding the definition offered above, students may be temporarily absent from British Columbia, yet still retain
status as ordinarily resident, as follows:
a) The parent or guardian remains resident in British Columbia while the student is temporarily absent. This
temporary absence is marked by clear documentation that the student will be returning to the parental home at
the end of this temporary absence. Some exchange students, athletes competing at elite levels, and students
involved in extended travel or self-funded studies overseas could be considered ordinarily resident in British
Columbia.
b) If the student is temporarily absent from the province with the parent or guardian they may be considered
ordinarily resident in British Columbia if there is clear evidence that the family will be returning to British Columbia.
This evidence might be a letter from an employer indicating the commencement or termination of a contract for
work, or any other documentation deemed sufficient by the Superintendent or designate.
An International Student who is regarded as “ordinarily resident” for funding purposes as defined by the Ministry of
Education’s Policy Document International Students is considered ordinarily resident for the purposes of receiving
distributed learning services.
