2026–27 international information: NIC estimates $16,448 in tuition for a full academic year (two 15-credit terms), plus approximately $1,700 mandatory fees and $2,080 textbooks, for an estimated $20,228 academic-year total. Actual tuition is program-specific. Open-entry programs generally require Academic IELTS 6.0 overall with no band below 5.5; limited-entry and health programs can have higher or separate requirements. International application deadlines are May 1, 2026 for September 2026 and August 31, 2026 for January 2027, although programs may fill earlier. PGWP eligibility is program-specific: NIC displays CIP/PGWP information on eligible program pages, and current IRCC field-of-study and language rules must also be met. Always confirm the exact program before applying.
