Tuition and Fees

Please note that under the current Ontario Government Tuition Fee Framework, Canadian citizens or Permanent Residents who reside outside of Ontario at the time of their admission may be charged a tuition fee that is up to 3% higher in 2021/2022, and up to 5% higher in 2022/2023 than students applying from Ontario in equivalent programs; these effects are cumulative. Students are encouraged to review the fees for their student category and program when planning for their costs.

Toronto Metropolitan University (TMU) assesses fees each term based on your enrolled courses, academic program, year level, and immigration/residency status. Undergraduate and graduate fees are due by the payment deadline at the beginning of the semester, while Chang School fees are due at the time of course enrolment. See the Significant Dates page for all applicable deadlines.

Fees are comprised of tuition and ancillary fees, and represent your contribution toward the direct and indirect costs of services, supports and resources that support the completion of your studies.

  • Tuition fees finance instructional and academic program delivery costs, and general operating costs of the university.
  • Ancillary fees support programs, services and facilities that are distinct from academic programming, such as support services, athletics, clubs, unions and more.

 Additional fees may be assessed if you opt to live in student residence, purchase a meal plan or access additional services that are not covered by your tuition and ancillary fees. These fees contribute toward the service delivery or administrative costs of the services you receive.
