One-bedroom apartments range from $650 to $800 per month, though apartments closer to the university may be more expensive because of location. A one-bedroom apartment in Canada will consist of a separate bedroom, kitchen and dining area, living area and a private bathroom.

Other costs may include: telephone, television, internet, utilities (electricity and water) and groceries. Most apartments are unfurnished, so you will need to purchase all furniture and kitchens items.
