Tuition and Fees

Tuition

Tuition is what you pay for the courses you take at university. 

At $5,482 per year for most programs at a full-time course load, the University of  New Brunswick's tuition rates are extremely competitive. In fact, that's one of the lowest costs of tuition in the Maritimes.
