The Winter Course Material Term is now live. All textbooks and course materials are available by online order only through the Wolfie’s Campus Store website.

You can pick up your order for free in the Campus Activity Centre.

In-person textbook shopping is no longer offered, so please place your order online before classes begin.

If you have questions, we’re here to help: campusstore@tru.ca

Student cards now digital

Winter 2026 course registration

Winter 2026 course registration is open. Visit tru.ca/registration.

The Registration Deadline is January 9. After this deadline, you will no longer be able to add your name to a waitlist for courses that are full.
Late registration and registration changes are permitted during the Add/Drop period from Jan 10 up to Jan 23. The Add/Drop period is limited to courses with space available. Waitlists will not be accessible during the Add/Drop period.
If you are on a waitlist, check your student email daily to see if a seat has become available.

Construction updates: work continues on the Low-Carbon District Energy System

TRU is proud to lead the way in sustainability with the Low-Carbon District Energy System (LCDES). This major infrastructure project will eventually connect campus buildings to an innovative heat pump system — replacing natural gas boilers and significantly reducing TRU’s carbon footprint.

Multiple construction activities are underway or scheduled, resulting in temporary closures and rerouted access points across Kamloops campus. Visit tru.ca/lcdes for maps and updates.
