Financial Information and Awards

Visit the links below for information on fees and financial support for graduate students.

Tuition and Fees

Student Financial Services (SFS) publishes fees for each academic session.

Refunds

Fees refunds/credit calculations are based on complete withdrawal from a term, not withdrawal from individual courses. This is because fees are calculated according to a student's program and full-time or part-time enrolment status/activity level. Fees are not calculated on a per course basis.

Financial Support

Various forms of financial assistance are available to graduate students. Full-time students qualify for  Master's Domestic(+TA) or Master's International (+TA) funding packages.

In addition, York University and external agencies offer numerous fellowships, assistantships, scholarships, awards, prizes, and grants: Scholarships, Assistantship, Awards, Grants and Prizes
