Bachelor of Hospitality and Tourism ManagementSAIT
This bachelor-completion program adds two years of hospitality and tourism management study after an eligible diploma. The $47,329 international estimate covers the degree portion; it does not include the diploma needed to enter.
Plan the study budget ↓
Include your earlier diploma in the full education budget
Entry requires a SAIT Hospitality and Tourism Management diploma or an accredited equivalent with a cumulative GPA of at least 2.3. SAIT assesses other hospitality diplomas for equivalency and may require additional courses. The two-year degree price is therefore different from the cost of starting a bachelor's education directly from high school.
