M.Sc. Out-of-Province student fees will see the same 3% increase as Quebec fees
M.Sc. International student fees will see the same 3% increase as Quebec fees
Ph.D. students from the rest of Canada will continue to pay Quebec fees.
Ph.D. International student fees will see the same 3% increase as Quebec fees.
All graduate students in the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences will receive guaranteed funding in the form of annual student stipends that are intended to provide the student with financial support to pay tuition, fees and living expenses (Harmonized funding policy).听 A student's stipend may come from a combination of sources including, but not limited to, the supervisor's research grant, fellowships or awards received by the students and/or from our departmental tuition support fund.
Minimum Support from the Supervisor is as follows (for student who do not hold a fellowship or award):
M.Sc. Canadian: $22,000
Ph.D. Canadian: $24,000
M.Sc. Int'l $30,000
Ph.D. Int'l $25,000
Students are urged to make every effort to secure their own funding from studentships or fellowships administered by the University (internal fellowships) or by Provincial, federal or international agencies (external fellowships). Personal or family financing is听not听permitted. More information can be found below under Fellowships and Awards below.
听
Departmental Tuition Support:
To ensure that all students are covered听 the base living allowance and tuition and fees, the departmental tuition support is offered to all eligible students who are in "Full time Status" (e.g. first 3 full terms of M.Sc. and until the end of Ph.D. 4). After this time, students have a status of "Additional Session"听 and pay tuition at the Quebec rate and therefore departmental support will reduce accordingly (please refer to the second table below). If the student stipend covers living allowance and fees, students will not be eligible for department support.听 Students in "Thesis Evaluation" will not be eligible to receive department tuition support (Thesis evaluation status is the term following initial thesis submission)
Please note: Tuition support is very limited and due to the high volume of international applications,听 associate members can no longer be guaranteed departmental tuition support for听new听incoming international students.
