Welcome to the University of Whistler
Where slackademics thrive, après is a field of study, and flannel is formalwear.
A Higher Education in Lower Expectations . The Mountain is Our Campus. The Après is Our Classroom.
Founded in the snowy back bowls of Whistler, the University of Whistler is North America’s most unofficial institute of higher sliding.
We proudly educate the mountain-minded in fields such as:
• Après Sciences – Hot tub diplomacy, hydration theory, and snackology
• Powder Management – Face shots, snowpack interpretation, and sick day strategy
• Flannel Philosophy – Cozy wisdom, layered logic, and cabin-based critical thinking
• Slackademics 101 – A first-year program for the highly unmotivated but extremely stoked
Whether you’re a ski bum, visiting professor of Chill Studies, or an honorary PhD in Procrastination, there’s a place for you at U of W.

Since 1966, Whistler has been the ultimate destination for a higher education in the school of life. Here, students trade textbooks for trail maps, classrooms for chairlifts, and lectures for life lessons on powder days. At the University of Whistler, we major in skiing, snowboarding, biking, and mastering the art of living the mountain dream.
