Tuition Information

International: CAD 750 per credit hour in 2026-27 (per-credit rates are frozen at 2025-26 levels by the Newfoundland and Labrador government). MUN's sample cost for two semesters of a bachelor's degree (10 three-credit courses) is CAD 22,500 for international students and CAD 6,750 for Canadian citizens, permanent residents and NL residents, who pay CAD 225 per credit hour. Required fees for the two semesters add a CAD 100 student services fee, a CAD 149 students' union fee and a CAD 148 recreation fee, plus health insurance of CAD 548 for international students (CAD 525 for Canadian students, including dental). Books, supplies, residence and any program-specific fees are extra, and 2027-28 rates are not yet published.

Admission Requirements

• Apply online through MUN's admissions portal. Fall 2027 applications open on September 10, 2026. The non-refundable application fee is CAD 300 for international applicants and CAD 70 for Canadian citizens and permanent residents, paid by Visa or MasterCard (debit cards are not accepted). Competitive-entry applicants also get a general admission (BA or B.Sc.) application at no extra cost
• Meet MUN's general admission requirements: a recognized high school diploma with university-preparatory courses in English, mathematics, a laboratory science (biology, chemistry or physics), social studies or a modern/classical language, and an elective. Minimum averages depend on your curriculum. Examples are a B average for American-patterned diplomas, 75 for China's Senior Secondary School Certificate, 60% for Indian Class 12 certificates (such as CBSE or ISC), a C4 average for WAEC/NECO and 24 points on the IB Diploma. From Winter 2027, UK-patterned applicants need a B/6 average at IGCSE/O Level plus three AS Levels or two A Levels averaging C. MUN's country pages list the rest
• You can apply directly from high school by choosing the degree on the application. Direct entry is competitive for a limited number of places, and overall academic performance and the ability to handle a full course load are considered. Meeting the minimums does not guarantee a place
• First-year courses include Mathematics 1000 (which must be completed before Academic Term 3), Chemistry 1050 and 1051, Physics 1020 or 1050, and Psychology 1000 and 1001, so grade 12 mathematics and sciences are good preparation
• Transfer students are not admitted beyond Academic Term 4 and should expect at least three more years of study
• English proficiency is required. It is normally met by two years of full-time study at a Canadian high school, by an English-taught curriculum such as the IB Diploma or an American-patterned or UK-patterned diploma, or by at least 15 credit hours at a recognized English-language university in a country on MUN's list. Otherwise the test minimums are: IELTS Academic 6.5 with 6.0 in reading and writing (General Training is not accepted); TOEFL iBT 4.5 overall with 4.0 in reading and writing (tests taken up to January 2026: 83 with 20 in reading and writing); Duolingo 115; PTE Academic 60; CAEL 60; Cambridge C1 Advanced or C2 Proficiency 176; Michigan English Test 59. The test must be taken within two years before you apply. Applicants below these scores may be considered for early acceptance through MUN's Intensive English Program at Grenfell Campus
• To accept an offer, international students pay a CAD 1,500 non-refundable confirmation deposit (CAD 150 for Canadians), which is credited to first-semester tuition. If IRCC refuses the study permit, it is refunded minus a CAD 150 fee. MUN then requests the Provincial Attestation Letter (PAL) from the NL government, which usually takes 3 to 7 business days after the offer
