How does it all work?
Table of Contents
To get your Mortgage Broker license in BC, first you must register and pay on the UBC website for the correspondence course through the University of British Columbia – Sauder School of Business. You’ll need to register for the Mortgage Broker Course.
- Once you have completed the registration on their website, UBC will mail out all their material for the correspondence course in 3 – 5 days to your home. This is a self taught, self paced course.
- You are provided 1 year to teach yourself all the chapters of the math, law, get through all the Assignments basically on your own. We condensed the UBC course down for easier learning.
- You must pass (up to) 20 Assignments and are allowed to submit 2 Assignments per week into UBC, so you are not permitted to write the exam for a minimum for 10 weeks from when you registered and have your assignments in and passed & your English requirement in to UBC. Yes, we help you with assignments.
- When you have completed and passed all the required assignments and have provided a copy of the English requirement to UBC (*see English requirements next page) and feel you are prepared, you may write their exam. Paper exams are a few times per year or computer exams daily at UBC.
- The UBC Exam is 100 multiple choice questions, 3 hours long and you must pass by 65%. You can take the exam on paper offered a few times per year or daily at UBC on their computers.
- You will interview a few Real Estate companies and choose to work for the one that suits you. You have up to 1 year to apply for your Mortgage Broker license, otherwise you must write the UBC exam again. We supply you with a list of questions to ask the real estate companies. Plus we work with the Top Real Estate companies in BC, so we are happy to provide you contacts.
- If you fail the UBC exam, you are permitted to rewrite the UBC exam again for a fee, but you must wait 3 months from failing before writing again. If you fail the second time, you must wait 1 year and pay for the entire course again. Real Smart’s been teaching this since 2000’ We have had thousands of students just like you pass the first time. Our passing rate is over 97%
