International Tuition Estimates

All tuition fees below are listed in Canadian dollars and show the estimates for the 2024/25 academic year. 

International Tuition Increase for 2024/25

First-year international undergraduate tuition for 2024/25 will increase by 3% over the 2023/24 international undergraduate tuition fees, except for the following programs:

  • Tuition for all Economics programs will increase by 5%.
  • Tuition for Business Administration (BBA), Business Technology Management (BBTM) and Laurier double degrees will not increase for 2024/25.

International Tuition Guarantee

Tuition rates are set each year for new, incoming international students. Once admitted, tuition rates for continuing international students will increase by no more than 5% between years of study. 

Tuition by Faculty

These are the estimated expenses for two terms: the fall term from September to December and the winter term from January to April. The tuition estimates are based on students being registered in a full-time course load, which is 5 half-credit courses per term (or 2.5 credits per term).

To come up with a realistic estimate, you can research your expenses using the following tables:
