Important:

To accept an offer of admission, students must make a tuition deposit payment of $1,500 CAD, of which $500 CAD is non-refundable, by the date stated in the offer of admission letter.

The academic tuition fee portion for one-year GPLLM and the two-year extended full-time GPLLM is the same, and includes most program materials and other Faculty of Law fees. It will also include most program materials (excluding textbooks for the Canadian Law concentration courses).

Students in the two-year extended full-time GPLLM are responsible for paying the incidental fees (and UHIP coverage, if applicable) in each academic year they are enrolled in the program.

Tuition Tax Credit

The GPLLM program is considered a full-time graduate degree program, and thus any tuition paid is partially tax deductible.

Students will receive a T2202 tuition receipt for each tax year they are enrolled in the program. The tuition amount can be declared on an annual income tax return to offset taxes payable. Please contact a taxation specialist for more information and professional advice.
