Edmonton Campus: Vanguard College


Edmonton is one awesome city! With acres of beautiful parks and river valley, outdoor pools and in-city ski and snowboard facilities, there's always something new to discover. Just check out these options.

If you're a sports fan, take in an Oilers game, and see the five time NHL Stanley Cup winners in action. Or, watch the Eskimos tackle the toughest opponents in rockin' CFL football action. You can also check out the Capitals as they swing into baseball action.

Maybe shopping is your thing (even if it's just window shopping). Don't miss West Edmonton Mall, the world's biggest shopping center. The Mall includes a huge indoor waterpark and amusement park, mini-golf, submarine rides, hundreds of stores, and much, much more. And in the summer, you can enjoy outdoor shopping at Whyte Avenue, and Edmonton's Downtown core, just minutes away from the Vanguard campus. Of course if you want to shop close to home walk ten minutes to Kingsway Garden Mall.

Or, is it culture you're after? Look no further! Rexall Place, Jubilee Auditorium and the world-class Winspear center will provide musical experiences to suit anybody. With YC, Canada's biggest youth event, in Edmonton every year, you will also get a chance to hear and see the greatest Christian entertainment this world has to offer. Theatre enthusiasts will love the Citadel theatre, as well as the many festivals which go on all summer long. And, if it's history or science you are into, check out the Provincial Museum of Alberta, Fort Edmonton Park, Edmonton Space and Sciences Center and the Muttart Conservatory. Culture doesn't stop there either. You can explore Edmonton's ethnic backgrounds with China Town, Little Italy and the Avenue of Nations.

Of course, we know the most important thing to you is education, right? With the University of Alberta just 2 kilometers away from Vanguard, you can supplement your theology training with world class courses on almost anything! And because of close relationships between Vanguard and other colleges, universities and seminaries in the area, our students have library access to well over 100 000 theological volumes.
Finally, student life in Edmonton is unforgettable. Chapel services at Vanguard will shape you forever, as God gets a hold of your life through powerful worship and preaching. The students will get a hold of your life too, as you forge friendships that will last a lifetime. There are parties and get-togethers throughout the year, plus the many nearby apartments make for great relationship building times.
Edmonton is the perfect canvas for God to paint His masterpiece on your life.
