Hello
I want to attend Mcmaster to becoma A Civil engineer
I am wondering how much will going to mcmaster cost me for first year

I know res is around 5500 dollers, meal plan, 2500 dollers for the lightest one

but the tutition for engineering i am not sure

If it was to total 15000

will OSAP give me all that money??

Thx for ur help

I tried serching but all i could find is cost per unit

thx for ur help

Don't forget tuition, which will cost around $8000/year and textbooks, which can get up to $1000/year.

OSAP will definitely help. I know a lot of people in financial need who get by just fine.

but if i buy used textbooks will it still be 1000$/year?

The used textbooks certainly are cheaper, but I bought a used textbook for $129 instead of the new textbook that was $149. SO the money will still pile up reallllll fast.

I'm in Eng this year. Cost me 15,000 (Res, Tuition, Meal Plan), minus 2000 for entrance scholarship. So 13,000. Add back 1000 for books and software, plus like 500 for begging and school supplies. Plus laptop.

So total: about 15,500.

Yikes.

engineering this year was 16,000 in a double room with light meal plan. then add like 300-400 bucks for textbooks/software/courseware

Engineering is one of the most -- if not, THE most expensive program to be in, so $15, 000 sounds about right, if you're doing rez and all that.

OSAP will definitely help, but the amount they give you depends on your financial situation.
I know people in Eng who get by just fine with OSAP

From what i learned, the max osap will give you is 13 thousand. (Which, as mentioned, requires you to also be in financial need to recieve that much)
