Application information

Entry requirements

Admission into the department is determined on a competitive basis. Applications are first reviewed by the Graduate Admissions and Records Office and then by the Political Science Admissions and Awards Committee. In addition to the materials required by the Graduate Admissions and Records Office (two letters from academic referees, application form and official transcripts), the department asks all master’s applicants to submit a one-to-two page statement of research interests. Not all students who meet the minimum requirements can be admitted. Typically, eight to ten MA students are admitted into the program each year.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the courses you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Many graduate programs have three entry points: September, January and May; entry points and deadlines are listed on each program overview page.

The application fee is $145.25 if all documents originate within Canada and $187.00 if any originate outside Canada, payable online by credit card.
