Different courses cost wildly different amounts. Some charge different amounts to nationals, non-nationals and non-EU. It might be useful to have a list so the fees (and practices relating to them) can be compared. |
This answer is a wiki, so please add your info here, and hopefully this answer will become a useful reference for comparisons.

I don't know how the website handles multiple users editing at the same time. Just in case, to avoid conflicts, it might be wise to make a note in the wiki (and save it, so others can see it) including date, time and screen-name before you start modifying entries, so we don't end up losing information.

A big apology to everyone for misinforming you about the cost of the 1-year Master of Conference Interpreting at the University of Ottawa. The University has just informed me that the cost for a Canadian National is $Cdn 8826 (this includes all fees) and the cost for an international student is $Cdn 19,720...roughly 14,340 Euros. I updated the list accordingly. :-)
