TUITION, FEES & PAYMENT
Tuition, Fees & Estimates
Going to university requires a significant financial investment: tuition fees, service fees, books and supplies. It all adds up. But with a bit of planning, you can enjoy all that student life has to offer, even while balancing work and your studies.
All fees are reviewed and approved annually and published in MacEwan University's Academic Calendar.
You must pay a fee each time you submit an application for admission to the university. Application fees are non-refundable.

When you accept admission to a program, you must pay an admission confirmation deposit. These funds will be applied towards your tuition. You must pay the deposit even if you have applied for student loans, scholarships, bursaries or sponsorship. If you do not pay your admission confirmation deposit by the deadline indicated in your offer letter, your offer of admission will be withdrawn.

Your costs each term include tuition, mandatory term fees, SAMU fees and other fees.
