We are dedicated to helping you prepare financially for your time at uOttawa and benefit from awards, grants and other funding sources offered by our institution and external agencies. Here are a few tips to help you plan and offset the cost of your education.

Know your tuition fees

Tuition fees must be paid at the beginning of each term. They can vary based on the status of the student and are different from one program to the other. Depending on the program, other fees may apply, such as administrative fees, incidental fees, and ancillary fees.

Tuition fees vary according to your legal status in Canada, as defined in the regulations of the Ontario Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities. The Board of Governors reserves the right to change fees and rules governing refunds without prior notice.

If you are an international student, the University Health Insurance Plan (UHIP) is a compulsory insurance plan for you.\ \ Calculate uOttawa tuition fees\ \ Learn more about UHIP\

Establish sound financial planning

Creating a realistic budget for every school year will help you spend less and save more, develop your resourcefulness and financial independence and mitigate the risk of having to face a financial crisis. The objective? Graduate with as little student debt as possible.
