Tuition Fees and Schedule

The Ivey HBA program is a 2 + 2 program. You spend your first two years in any program or faculty and typically join the Ivey HBA Program in your third year. Keep this in mind as you compare the costs of the Ivey HBA Program to other undergraduate business programs. It is important to consider the overall (usually 4 year) cost of the programs.

Ancillary fees are mandatory course or program fees that are charged in addition to tuition, and are used to fund a number of student benefits like your bus pass, health plan, and more. See the Register's website for a list of what ancillary fees include.
