Cost of Living
It is important to consider your cost of living while working toward your doctorate. Although the cost of living in Thunder Bay is significantly lower than many of the larger cities in Canada, it is still very important to anticipate and manage your expenses so that you can focus on your research.

- Tuition and Fees
- Health Insurance
- Housing:
- Residence
