International Applicants

Due dates for tuition, lab and other fees are the same as for Canadian applicants (see above).
All international students must pay international student fees in addition to their program tuition fee.
First-year international students pay a $5,000 CAD student fee, second-year international students pay a $4,400 CAD student fee (2022/2023 only). All international students also pay $750 for international health insurance, and $420 for medical and dental insurance through the student union. These fees are due by the first day of the program.
The international student fee is not refundable unless you have been denied a study permit from Citizenship and Immigration Canada. Once Holland College receives a copy of the refusal letter, we will issue a refund. To notify us if you cannot obtain a study permit, email admissions@hollandcollege.com. Requests for refund must be received by the college within 60 days of the issued date of the refusal letter. In addition, you must provide proof that you applied for the study permit prior to the start date of the program indicated on your acceptance letter.
If you can show that you have medical and dental insurance coverage for the time that you are enrolled at Holland College, you can opt out of the medical and dental insurance provided through the student union. In order to opt out of the international health insurance, you must have a valid Province of P.E.I. health card.

Payment methods for International Students

Payments can be made with cash or by debit card, cheque, money order, through Convera, via online banking through most Canadian banks, or through TransferMate. TransferMate lets you make international payments to Holland College in your own currency while receiving competitive foreign exchange rates. Find out how to make payments through TransferMate here.

Note

Students paying fees via Transfermate are bound by the foreign exchange rates that Transfermate charges for wire transfers, which may differ from the rates they charge on credit card transactions. As this is a third-party service, Holland College is unable to adjust these rates.
