Hello house,

Please for the Uottawa students in the house (PGD), how are fees paid? Is it per year or per session...like winter, fall and summer? The fees I'm seeing on the registrars website says $7014 and my program is for two years.

So am I gonna pay $7014 for 6 semesters (I guess its 3 semesters per year) which will be $7014 * 6 or I'm gonna pay $7014 per year which will be $7014*2

And also who knows if the VOs contact your employer to know if you have actually been given leave according to your letter and if they are willing to employ you when you return (I intend to use this as home tie but my boss is Margaret Thatcher so my colleagues wanna sign for me and considering my field, anyone can own a law firm anyway).

Thanks.

P.S I have mailed the school to ask for a written estimate of my tuition but no reply yet and my dad is getting impatient.

Hi! Lol@impatient dad, I was in a similar position few months back.

Well according to the kind help I got here, uOttawa students hardly take courses during the summer (except it's fixed or any other special case).
So the $7014 will be per session (fall session & winter session) and that'll make $7014*2 for a full year's payment.
But you should also note that fall session may be a little more expensive than the winter session, and you should also make consideration for the health plan fees.

I hope this helps.

Btw...what course & session are you going for?
Re: Travelling To Canada Part 7 by abass: 6:30pm On Apr 02, 2015
My long awaited time is here, paying my half tuition after easter but I will like to know some few things.

1. The SOP form is not online as I intend to use online platform instead of the paper application, where do I get it?

2. I will be sponsoring myself and my brother(canadian citizen) as a co sponsor. I have just 2m in the acct, in which I will pay tuition deposit out of it, I intend to print the SOA and later pay tuition deposit. After which the money in the acct won't b upto 2m again but I'm submitting 2m SOA for visa application. Is it allowed?

3. Is letter of introduction very important from my company because I joined yesterday.

Hello, You need to add your Brother's Pay slips and yours, Your SOA irrespective of how much you have in your acct. Also, I hope your brother is not using his company's acct o?

Re: Travelling To Canada Part 7 by MockinJay(m): 8:57pm On Apr 02, 2015
I keep on reading posts concerning "School is asking for SAT or TOEFL" Like seriously why won't such person make his/her research on the school before applying.

There are Schools in Canada that requests for such while the others don't. When applying, go to "English Proficiency Test" locate "Countries that satisfies the test already" You should see Nigeria and Ghana there amongst the few African Countries. If Nigeria is not there and you don't have time for SAT and co..Run away!!

Case #2. Click on Nigeria and you will see all the requirements there! SSCE/WAEC..finish!!

BTW, University of Victoria and Lakehead are requesting for more applicants!!

Based on the information I got from FPGS Uottawa when I got my Masters admission at Uottawa, the tuition was approximately 6k5 per session for 3 session in a year. i.e about 19k per year. You have to pay tuition for all sessions, as long as you are still a student...also my course was to start in summer 2015...so yes they take courses in Summer. I am also aware that Pre-Masters is usually more expensive than Masters itself...

...So pple dont typically apply for pre-masters. But most schools give u pre-masters if the admission committee is not satisfied or convinced that you qualify for direct Masters program (and they dont want to decline your application). The Pre-Masters is kinda like PGD (It is also called a Post Baccalaureate Diploma)

I think we can agree that yours was under the 'fixed/special case' I mentioned cos you were to begin your program in the summer session.

And from my understanding, regular uOttawa students generally observe the summer break without having to pay tuition for the summer (I think, except he/she wants to take courses or perform any other academic activity).

This has been confirmed by active students.
