Crandall University Fees for International Students (Canada)

Crandall University fees for international students: the direct answer

Crandall University does not publish a fixed international tuition figure in the data we have verified — the university's own position is that fees are "kept low" relative to other Canadian institutions, but the exact dollar amount needs to be confirmed directly on the official site before you apply. Don't commit to an application or a visa budget based on a number you saw on a counsellor's WhatsApp forward or an agent's brochure — check crandallu.ca yourself and get the current fee in writing from the admissions office.

This is the single most important habit for Nepali applicants: a university's fee can change between intakes, and "kept low" is a marketing phrase, not a budget line. What you can plan around with real numbers are the English requirement and the proof-of-funds figures IRCC actually checks — both are below.

Crandall University at a glance

What the English scores mean in practice

IELTS 6.5 overall is the figure Crandall lists, alongside TOEFL 80 and Duolingo 115. These three are treated as equivalent by the university, so you only need to clear one of them, not all three. If your IELTS band is below 6.5 but your TOEFL is 80 or above, that TOEFL score still satisfies the requirement — don't retake a test unnecessarily.

Proof of funds: what IRCC actually checks

Your study permit depends far more on provable funds than on the university's listed fee. These are the amounts a single applicant and accompanying family members need to show:

These figures are per the funds table, not per tuition fee — tuition at Crandall is a separate cost you pay to the university, and this proof-of-funds amount is what you show as living-cost backing when you apply for the permit. Do not add the two together yourself and quote a combined "total cost" to a visa officer; show each figure for what it is.

If you're bringing a spouse or children, a separate multiplier applies to some financial calculations: 1 for a single applicant, 1.55 for two people, 1.85 for three, and 2.15 for four. Ask your counsellor which calculation your specific bank or GIC provider uses before you assume which figure applies to your case.

Cost of living: what Moncton students should budget beyond tuition

We don't have a Moncton-specific monthly living cost figure. What we do have is a city-by-city table from other parts of Canada, useful as a reference point for how much variation exists — not as a direct stand-in for Moncton's own cost of living:

Moncton is a smaller Atlantic Canada city, closer in character to Fredericton or Halifax than to Toronto or Vancouver — but treat that as a general pattern, not a number you quote in a funds declaration. For the actual figure, ask Crandall's international office or current students what a room and groceries cost in Moncton right now.

How to confirm the real fee before you apply

1. Go to crandallu.ca and find the current international tuition page.
2. Email the admissions office and ask for the fee in writing, along with any compulsory extra charges — application fee, health insurance, student union fees — that don't always appear in the headline tuition number.
3. Ask whether the fee you're quoted is per year or per full programme. These are not interchangeable, and a published figure that looks low per semester can look very different once you multiply it by the length of your course — get the per-year and whole-programme numbers separately, in writing.
4. Cross-check the figure against your proof-of-funds plan so your GIC or bank balance actually covers tuition plus the funds table above, not just one of the two.

Run your full numbers — fees once confirmed, the proof-of-funds table, and your city's living costs — through the Master Reckoner before you commit to an intake. It's built to catch exactly this kind of gap between what's advertised and what a visa officer or the university actually asks for.

Common questions

What are Crandall University's exact tuition fees for Nepali students?

We don't have a verified figure to quote — Crandall describes its fees as "kept low" but the specific dollar amount isn't published in the data we checked. Confirm the current fee directly with Crandall's admissions office before applying, and get it in writing so you can plan your proof of funds accurately.

What IELTS score do I need for Crandall University?

Crandall lists IELTS 6.5 overall, or equivalently TOEFL 80 or Duolingo 115. You only need to meet one of these three, not all of them.

How much money do I need to show for a Canada study permit if I'm going to Crandall?

The proof-of-funds table is based on family size: 23,448 CAD for a single applicant, rising to 29,192 CAD for two people, 35,888 CAD for three, and more for larger families, with 6,318 CAD added for each extra person beyond seven. This is separate from your tuition fee — you need to cover both, and neither replaces the other.

Is Moncton an expensive city to live in compared with Toronto or Vancouver?

We don't have a Moncton-specific living cost figure, but smaller Atlantic Canada cities like Fredericton and Halifax run well below Toronto and Vancouver's 3,500 CAD monthly estimate — Fredericton, for instance, is listed at 2,200 CAD. Treat this as a general pattern and confirm Moncton's actual costs with the university or current students before budgeting.
