Your path to community.

Our name, inspired by the Lək̓ ʷəŋən word “Camosun,” means “where different waters meet and are transformed.” We live this spirit of convergence and evolution, offering an option where your individual path is celebrated within our diverse community. We honour the deep-rooted wisdom and traditions of all Indigenous cultures, essential to our collective story.

Our commitment to making Camosun a place where everyone truly belongs is unwavering. Our dedication to diversity, equity, and inclusion enriches our community, making us all stronger and more connected. Every unique voice adds to the chorus of our collective story.

Your path to creativity.

Creativity is where imagination meets ingenuity, giving birth to original ideas and solutions. Creativity isn't confined to the realm of arts; it occurs in every classroom, lab, shop, and space at Camosun. From science and trades to business and health care, Camosun promotes individual originality and inventiveness in everything we do. In a world constantly evolving, your creativity can be about more than preparing for the world as it is—it can be about shaping it into what it could be.
