How much of a deposit would I need to pay to secure my UG spot at UBC?

Once you are admitted as a new international undergraduate student at UBC, you will need to pay a tuition fee deposit of CAD 3,000, or approximately INR 2.05 lakh, to confirm your spot. This deposit differs by course type, so it is worth checking the figure for your specific program.

Getting your UBC offer is only the first step, you also need to lock in your seat with a deposit, and the amount depends on which course you are joining.

UBC Tuition Fee Deposits By Course Type

CourseAcceptance Deposit
New International UGCAD 3,000 (INR 2.05 L)
New International B.D.Sc DegreeCAD 1,000 (INR 68k)
New International Vantage ProgramCAD 3,000

What Happens After You Pay

This deposit secures your place and is typically adjusted against your first tuition installment, so it is not an extra charge on top of your total fees, but rather an early part-payment.

My Advice

Keep your deposit payment ready as soon as your offer arrives, since UBC's deadlines for confirming your seat are tight, and missing this step can mean losing your admission slot to another applicant.
