The cost of studying for a master's degree depends on several factors: the place of study (province / capital), specialty, prestige of the university.
Studying in Ontario and British Columbia can be more expensive compared to studying in Alberta and Manitoba. If the initial cost of master's programs ranges from 5800-6000CAD $ per semester, then for prestigious universities this figure is higher - 18,000-20,000CAD $ per semester. The price may also depend on the direction of training: humanitarian specialties are cheaper (6000-8000CAD $ per semester), creative and engineering specialties are more expensive (from 10,000CAD $ per semester), since they include the use of additional equipment. Business administration programs are also above average - from $ 11,000-12,000 per semester.
If we talk about postgraduate certificate | diploma, post-degree diploma programs, then the cost of studying per semester varies from 8400 to 10 500 CAD $. The cost is also influenced by the presence of a co-op component (practice): because of it, the cost of the program can be increased by another 3000-4000CAD $.
