Program and Course Fees
Program and course fees are due at the time of registration.
Program fees cover consumable and non-consumable costs incurred by students in a program that cannot be considered to be part of the general cost of education. Such fees cover a portion of the costs associated with print materials, laboratory classes and required camps or conferences.
Students in Basic Education, cost recovery programs, the Nursing Education Program of Saskatchewan (NEPS) and the NEPS Second Degree Entry Option are generally exempt from program fees.
