Tuition Information

The United Kingdom

Applicants from the United Kingdom now have a funding option for a Career Development Loan. CDLs can pay for living costs, costs associated with learning, and for course fees. The CDL programme is run through a partnership arrangement between the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) and three high street banks: Barclays, The Co-operative Bank and The Royal Bank of Scotland.

Note: all tuition costs are listed in the Canadian Dollar. Exchange rates will be calculated based on the current mid-market currency rates.

What do Career Development Loans cover?

Your CDL can be used to pay for more than just course fees. Before you apply, think carefully about what you need your loan to cover. This will help you decide how much you need to borrow. 

There are three areas that a CDL can cover:

  • course fees - 80 per cent of your course fees, or 100 per cent if you have been out of work for three months or more at the time of application
  • other course costs - including, books, equipment, tools, childcare, travel expenses and some costs associated with disability
  • living expenses - for food, ordinary clothing or footwear, household fuel, rent, housing costs and council tax; these costs must not be covered by any other grant or state benefit and you must not undertake work involving more than 30 hours per week
