| p : preliminary. r : revised. Notes: Using the most current enrolment data available, average tuition fees have been weighted by the number of students enrolled by institution and field of study. Since the distribution of enrolment across the various programs varies from period to period, caution must be exercised in making long-term historical comparisons. Revised data for 2006/2007 and for 2007/2008 resulting from the modifications to the questionnaire (implementation of the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) for both undergraduate and graduate programs) and the expansion of the survey universe. For Nova Scotia and Quebec, both in- and out-of-province students are included in the weighted average calculations. Source: Statistics Canada, Centre for Education Statistics.
