Senior students pay no application or tuition fees at the University of Manitoba if you are 65 years of age or older and are a Canadian citizen or permanent resident. This fee waiver includes course, student union, and associated fees. You are still responsible for your book and supply costs.
To be eligible as a senior student, you must be 65 years of age by September 1 for courses you take in the Fall Term, by May 1 for courses in the Summer Term and by January 1 for courses in the Winter Term.
You may have to provide proof of citizenship or permanent resident status in Canada and demonstration of proficiency in the use of the English language if you are an applicant born outside of Canada.
As a senior student, you still must submit an application form and meet entrance requirements for your selected course, even though your fees are waived. Please refer to the program requirements for your desired program for more information.
