Tuition fees are reviewed annually by the Board of Governors. In recent years, tuition increases have been 2% for continuing domestic students and 3% for continuing international students.
The 2025/26 fees have been approved by the UBC Board of Governors on Dec 6, 2024 and are effective on May 1, 2025.
For international undergraduate students starting their degree programs in the 2025/26 academic year, tuition will increase by no more than 3% each year for the subsequent 4 years or until graduation from their current degree program, whichever comes first.
The tuition amounts below are for students starting in 2025 Summer Session and 2025/26 Winter Session. All fees are in Canadian dollars.
How UBC determines your tuition and fees
At UBC, your citizenship status typically determines whether you’ll pay domestic or international tuition fees, but there are a few exceptions. If you’re an international student, find out whether you meet the eligibility requirements to be assessed domestic student fees.
