University of No Better Choice

A slang term for UNBC, the University of Northern British Columbia. It is so called because its lower admission requirements, combined with its lower tuition fees and the lower cost of living where the university is located, in Prince George, often make it a choice of necessity rather than true choice.

However the university is ranked quite high in Canadian standings for achievement and quality of education.

I fucked up my GPA by failing a sculpture class, now I have to finish my English degree at the University of No Better Choice!
