Financial Matters
Guaranteed Support (Thesis Programs)
The Human Genetics Graduate Training Committee requires that all students accepted into the M.Sc. or Ph.D. programs in Human Genetics must be financially supported. Current minimum levels of support are determined by聽Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences Minimum Funding Policy for Thesis-based Graduate Students, which includes a living allowance plus the full amount of tuition, student and insurance fees. These amounts are to be guaranteed for 2 years for M.Sc. students, 4 years for Ph.D. students who enter as Ph.D. (2) and 5 years for those who enter as Ph.D. (1).
The funds for stipend and tuition support may come from the following three sources:
- studentships (available from both internal and external agencies on a competitive basis),
- research grants awarded to supervisors
- financial support from foreign governments, providing it is documented, is acceptable.
The Department does not accept self-funded students.

Tuition Assistance
In an effort to assist and alleviate the financial cost associated with international tuition fees, the Department offers Tuition Assistance to eligible international M.Sc. and Ph.D. students, as well as out-of-province M.Sc. students.
Each admission cycle a determined number of tuition assistance packages are offered to incoming out-of-province/international students applying for the M.Sc. and Ph.D. programs in Human Genetics who have demonstrated outstanding academic achievement.
Students who have a cGPA of 3.5/4.0 or above (as converted by 不良研究所 GPS guidelines) and who submit online applications by our posted deadlines will automatically be considered for tuition assistance. A funding agreement would in turn be discussed with your secured supervisor and agreed upon prior to a recommendation for admission.

Tuition fee assessment by residency terms is 3 full-time terms for M.Sc. students; 6 full-time terms for Ph.D. students who enter with an M.Sc. degree; 8 full-time terms for Ph.D. students who are direct-entry from an undergraduate program.
