Next steps

When an admissions officer reviews your application, your Yukon University’s account will be created, and you will receive instructions on the next steps. Below is a list of steps you will be expected to complete during this process.

An admissions officer will contact you with further information when your application reaches each stage. Please wait for the request prior to submitting anything.

Application fee

You will be required to pay a non-refundable application fee in the amount of $100. You will be contacted with next steps on how to pay your application fee. Your application will only continue to be processed after you pay for this fee.

Official or evaluated transcript

If you are required to submit an evaluated transcript, you will be advised within your letter of Eligibility.

Tuition deposit

Every Yukon University international student is required to pay a tuition deposit prior to receiving a Letter of Acceptance. The tuition deposit will be applied to your tuition fee balance. Yukon University’s tuition deposits are non-refundable and non-transferable. Please refer to Yukon University’s fees and costs page for detailed information.

Letter or acceptance

Once all application steps are completed you will receive a Letter of Acceptance. Afterward, you will be eligible to apply for a Study Permit with Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

IRCC recently announced that those applying for a Canadian study permit will be required to submit their letter of acceptance to the IRCC; alongside an Attestation Letter (Study permit: Get the right documents - Canada.ca).

Any future Letter of Acceptance (LOA) issued to you from Yukon University may not be uploaded to the IRCC portal without an accompanying Attestation Letter.

At this time, the Government of Yukon is determining their process for issuing Attestation Letters. We expect that the Government of Yukon will confirm those details shortly and at that time, we will contact you directly to confirm your next steps!
