Financing your MBA
Personal Loans
Laurier has a close relationship with the Royal Bank of Canada and as a result of this partnership we have created an MBA Loan Program. This allows Laurier MBA candidates to borrow up to $80,000, depending upon the program.
Canadian Resident Loans
Canadian residents may also consider provincial student loans and the Canada Student Loan program. Applications are available through your home province.
International Students
International students should research the IEFC and NAFSA web pages. Some students have been successful in obtaining loans through these organizations, specifically if they have a U.S. resident who is willing to cosign with them.
Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP)
Ontario Student Loan Program information is available at the OSAP web site.
Scholarships and Bursaries
Laurier offers a variety of Scholarships and Bursaries, normally awarded upon academic performance once you are in the program.
