AEC, part-time studies, or specialized programs may have different fee structures. You must obtain the official fee schedule for your specific program and intake year.

6. Scholarships and Exemptions

There are scholarship mechanisms or additional tuition exemptions available for certain qualified international students. Eligibility depends on nationality, program, academic achievement, quotas, and the intake period; it should not be considered an automatic entitlement. Budget for the full amount until you have received written confirmation.

7. Intakes and Application Deadlines

The fall semester is the primary intake to check. Winter intakes and additional open programs depend on the school/campus. Deadlines for international applications may be earlier than for domestic ones; check the official calendar for your intended intake and allow time for immigration procedures.

8. Study Permits and Post-Graduation Plans

Before applying, check if the school, campus, and program are on the Canadian DLI list; cross-reference Québec's CAQ procedures and study permit requirements based on your individual situation. PGWP eligibility must be checked separately based on the program, timing, and IRCC regulations. Being a public school or receiving an offer of admission does not automatically guarantee PGWP or permanent residency.

2. Verify academic requirements, language proficiency, and international recruitment status.
