International fee details: The latest VCAD international price list publishes a $350 application fee, $10 assessment fee and $500 administration fee, plus program-specific e-resource/material fees. The totals displayed above include those published charges. Because the Vancouver campus is currently not accepting new in-person applications, these programs are shown for accurate institutional information rather than as currently open study-permit options. Admission requires high-school graduation/equivalent or qualifying mature-student status plus proof of English proficiency; program-specific requirements may also apply. PGWP eligibility should be checked against current IRCC rules before any future application.
