Yes, Canadian universities offer a range of scholarships for international students, including merit-based, need-based, and program-specific awards. These scholarships can reduce tuition fees significantly - some even cover full tuition and living expenses.

- Government scholarships like the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarships and Banting Postdoctoral Fellowships offer up to $50,000 - $70,000/year for top graduate and postdoctoral students.
- Institutional scholarships such as the Lester B. Pearson International Scholarship (University of Toronto) can cover all tuition and living costs for four years; others may provide partial funding.

Typical international tuition fees in Canada are about $41,746/year for undergraduates and $24,028/year for graduates. Scholarships can reduce these costs by 20 - 100%, depending on the award.

Scholarship amounts and tuition fees are subject to change each year.
