Tuition for graduate studies will depend upon your program of study. Most project or thesis based programs have a per term cost. Course based programs are assessed tuition for each class you take. Some programs have a flat tuition amount either for the entire program or per term.

All programs also have student fees that are charged for each term to cover services like health insurance or a bus pass.
