Note that tuition and fees quoted in your Letter of Acceptance (LOA) are estimates and may change. Additional charges like settlement fees and airport pickup can also affect your account balance if unpaid.

Please be aware that the tuition fees do not cover the cost of textbooks and other essential school supplies. To ensure a successful academic journey, we recommend that students prepare approximately $400-600 CAD per semester (not per program) to cover the costs associated with purchasing textbooks, stationery, and other learning materials. While the exact amount may vary depending on the program and course, this estimate should give a reasonable starting point.

“As an international student, adjusting to a new atmosphere was challenging, but choosing Loyalist College was a decision I’m proud of. The helpful and patient staff, along with supportive teachers, made my journey through fourth semester fulfilling. I’ll miss the college and faculty when I graduate.”
