Royal Roads University - Victoria main building at Hatley Castle, was completed in 1908 for coal and rail baron James Dunsmuir, who was Lieutenant Governor and Premier of British Columbia during the first decade of the 1900s. At the outbreak of World War II, plans were made for King George VI, his wife Queen Elizabeth, and their two daughters, Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret, to reside in Canada. Hatley Castle was purchased by the federal government in 1940 for use as the King's royal palace, however, it was decided that having the Royal Family leave the UK at a time of war would be too big a blow to morale, and the family stayed in London. After the death of Dunsmuir and then his widow Laura, the family sold the estate to the federal government in 1940 to be used by the military. HMCS Royal Roads was commissioned in December 1940 to train reserve officers for service in World War II.

Royal Roads University - Victoria had several names before it eventually became Royal Roads Military College in 1968 (achieving full degree-granting status in 1975). In 1995, the military college was closed and the land and facilities leased by the government of British Columbia then converted into Royal Roads University - Victoria the same year. Royal Roads University - Victoria maintains strong ties with the Canadian Forces. Many of the academic staff stayed on when the university went public in 1995 and some still remain. Royal Roads University - Victoria in the centre of the campus houses a small Canadian Military museum.

Royal Roads University - Victoria graduate programs are targeted towards military personnel and other public servants. The alumni of Royal Roads Military College are considered alumni of Royal Roads University and are always invited by the university to participate in alumni events and the alumni network. Bob Skene, Royal Roads University Chancellor from 2003-2006 stated "As a national institution of higher learning, I believe we should be adopting and honouring our military legacy as an institution with 66 years of history". Royal Roads University - Victoria is a public university located in Victoria, British Columbia and is designed for students who are working professionals, because most classes are offered in the evening, at night and on the weekends with the few exceptions of full time on campus undergraduate cohorts in the Professional Communications and coomerce program.
