Yes, some Canadian institutions offer discounts or fee waivers for diploma programs, but availability and eligibility vary by school.

- Concordia University: 10% tuition discount for students who have previously completed a course or workshop at Concordia.
- Red Deer Polytechnic: Application fee waivers and no tuition deposit for eligible Indigenous applicants in certain programs.
- Georgian College: International Entrance Scholarship for new, eligible international students in select programs (amounts vary).
- Royal Roads University: Tuition waiver for former children and youth in care under the BC Provincial Tuition Waiver Program.

Some schools may also offer fee waivers or discounts based on academic merit or work experience.
