International Student Tuition Deposits

The international student tuition deposit allows 51本色 to ensure that we are adequately prepared to support all the incredible international students who will live and learn on one of our campuses. 

Beyond benefitting your study permit application process, this tuition deposit shows your interest in attending your university of choice and that you are committed to attending your program at 51本色. 

How Much is the Tuition Deposit? 

51本色 requires a tuition deposit in the amount of $2,000 CAD from all undergraduate international students. 

The tuition deposit is not an additional fee. It will be applied to your first-term tuition balance once you enrol in courses and your invoice is issued. All international students must pay their tuition deposit as a condition of their offer.

You will have until the confirmation deadline stated on your offer letter to pay.
