Tuition
Statistics Canada publishes fees by province and field, never per institution.
What this can and can't tell you
It can
- How many students each institution has, and how many are international
- How many graduate each year
- What they study, by field
- Whether enrolment is growing or shrinking, over fifteen years
It can't
- What it costs. Statistics Canada publishes tuition by province and field of study, not by institution.
- What graduates earn. Also published by province only.
- Entry requirements — each institution sets its own.
Where a figure is missing it means Statistics Canada suppressed that cell to protect confidentiality. We show it as “not published” and never as zero.
