Tuition fees are approved each year by the University, usually in May or June, and come into effect in September.
The Ontario government regulates Canadian students’ tuition fees for universities in the province, whether they reside in Ontario or elsewhere in the country. Its framework sets out the maximum increases allowed and the rules for applying them, which vary depending on several criteria. Fees for international students are unregulated.
For international students, the University has the power to determine tuition fees, increases and the rules to apply them. Given this, to allow you to predict your tuition fees for the duration of your studies, the University adopted a tuition fee predictability commitment, which limits increases for returning students.
