Program tuition fees for students living in Canada

Estimated program tuition cost (2012-2013)

Total tuition costs for the MBA will vary based on how a student chooses to complete Phase Two. For a student living in Canada, who takes all of his or her courses from Athabasca University and chooses to complete two online electives, one in-residence elective and an applied project, tuition would be $44,500. If the student instead chose to complete five online electives and one in-residence elective, tuition would be $48,775. Application and admission fees are included in the above calculation. AU Graduate Student Association fees are not included.

Note: A surcharge of $400 will be charged for programs delivered outside of Canada. The University reserves the right to apply a surcharge to posted electives in-residence rates when such programs are delivered outside of Canada, and to charge for late cancellation of attendance at in-residence electives. The University also reserves the right to suspend students if their program fees are overdue.
