Contest for International Students in BC and Past Alumni
Wednesday, February 23rd, 2011
The BC Council for International Education (BCCIE) is launching two exciting contests for international students and alumni who are studying or who have studied in BC. The ‘myBC’ photo and ‘myBC’ video contests are open to all public and recognized private K-12 institutions or school districts, and EQA-designated post-secondary institutions and language schools in British Columbia.
Students and alumni are asked to submit their photos in three categories – The BC Experience, Study in BC, and My Life in BC – or to create a two minute video talking about their time spent studying in British Columbia. Winning entries will be eligible for a number of prizes and will be featured on the Study in BC website and in future BCCIE print and online materials.
To learn more about these contests, visit the ‘myBC’ microsite at: www.bccie.bc.ca/mybc.
