What to expect next

When an admissions officer receives 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.

  1. Submit an application
    • Receive a request to pay the application fee
  2. Pay application fee
    • Receive a request to submit the required documents according to the program you applied to
  3. Submit required documentation
    • Should you meet the admissions requirements, receive a Letter of Eligibility with a request to pay the tuition deposit
  4. Pay tuition deposit
    • Receive a Letter of Acceptance and Territorial Attestation Letter.
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.

Required documentation

The required documentation will vary according to each program. To prepare for this step, please review the admission requirements for the program you applied to.

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 of acceptance and attestation letter

After you have completed each application step, you will receive a Letter of Acceptance from Yukon University Admissions. The university will also submit an Attestation Letter request to Government of the Yukon on your behalf. 

Once Yukon University receives your Attestation Letter from Government of the Yukon, Yukon University Admissions will send it to you via email.  

When you receive your Attestation Letter from Yukon University Admissions, you will then be eligible to submit it (alongside your Letter of Acceptance) when you apply for a Study Permit with Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
