Tuition Tax Credit

The GPLLM program is considered a full-time graduate degree program, and thus any tuition paid is partially tax deductible.

Students will receive a T2202 tuition receipt for each tax year they are enrolled in the program. The tuition amount can be declared on an annual income tax return to offset taxes payable. Please contact a taxation specialist for more information and professional advice.
