In the eventof a discrepency between this document and the official KPU 2014-15 Calendar (available at www.kpu.ca/calendar/2014-15), the official calendar shall be deemed correct. 2014-15 Calendar www.kpu.ca/calendar/2014-15 Tuition & Fees The KPU Board of Governors has approved tuition and other fees for each program. They vary depending upon the type and duration of the program. Senior citizens (age 65 and older) are not charged tuition or other fees for most courses. In addition to KPU approved tuition and fees, students also pay fees levied by the Kwantlen Student Association (KSA). Detailed explanations of the KSA fees follow the fee tables. Tuition and fees are normally stated as a rate per credit. Therefore, the cost of a course can normally be calculated by looking at its credit value in the Calendar Course Descriptions and multiplying by the rate. Note in some cases, a maximum or flat rate for a given semester or year is charged. This fee schedule applies from 1 August 2014 to 31 July 2015. KPU reserves the right to amend this schedule without notice. Rates are listed in Canadian dollars. REGISTRATION FEES & TUITION TABLES What type of program?
