Study and Living Costs
The costs associated with study and living can be subject to change on an annual basis by the University of Waterloo. Tuition and fees are based on a four month term.
The graduate fee schedule is available from the University of Waterloo Student Finance Office.
The Graduate Studies Office has compiled estimates of living costs to assist students in budgeting for graduate studies. Individual costs will vary but we recommend prospective students review this information when planning their future studies.
All of our financial support packages are contingent upon students maintaining continuous full-time registration in the program, meeting academic requirements in a timely manner, and fulfilling teaching and/or research assistantship duties satisfactorily.
