Application Fee

The application fee for citizens of other countries is $75 (Canadian). This non-refundable fee must accompany your application.

Confirmation Fee

The international confirmation fee is $500. Once you are admitted, you are required to pay a nonrefundable confirmation fee within the timeframe indicated on your letter of offer. This fee is applied against your tuition, and confirms your intention to enroll in the program. If you fail to pay the confirmation fee within the required timeframe, you risk losing your seat in your program.

The confirmation fee is refunded only if the program is cancelled by NSCC. The fee is forfeited if you decide not to attend NSCC after you have confirmed, and cannot be held on your student account for future use.

International Health Insurance

All international students are required to carry medical insurance, which must be purchased through NSCC, and all documentation relating to your approval to study in Canada must be completed by August 1, 2010 prior to the start of classes. The cost of this insurance during the 2010-2011 Academic year is $650 per individual. Family coverage is also available.

Other Fees

There may be other fees associated with your campus and program. These may include co-op tuition, student association fees, supplies and textbooks. These fees will be outlined in your admissions package.
