However, to maintain tuition rates across all Professional Learning programs, the Faculty of Education will provide a bursary in the amount of $286.64 per core course. The bursary will be applied after the add/drop deadline and prior to the fee payment deadline for each term. All tuition fees and bursary amounts are subject to change. This does not apply to electives or international tuition.
