Refunds

Withdrawal

A student who withdraws from the University may apply to the Office of Registrarial Services for a refund of tuition fees provided the withdrawal has been authorized by the dean of the college (see also Withdrawal, Section VIII--Associate Diploma Regulations).

If the withdrawal or course drop results in a credit balance in your fees account, i.e., payments are greater than charges, a refund cheque is produced. Allow approximately four weeks before refunds are available from Student Financial Services. The University has been directed by the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities to return refunds to the National Student Loan Centre in instances where assistance was received through a Government Student Loan.

Payment cheques issued by students in settlement of their account which are subsequently not honoured by their bank does not constitute an official withdrawal from studies.

Refunds of tuition fees will be calculated according to the effective date and the following schedule:

Refunds of Other University Fees (except Residence and Meal Plan Fees) and Student Organization Fees (except Bus Pass and medical insurance premium) will be made in full up to and including the 15th class day of a semester. No refund of Other University Fees or Student Organization Fees will be made after the 15th class day. The effective date for the refund of tuition and fees will be the date on which the student notifies the Registrar regarding the withdrawal. Room charges will be refunded on a pro rata basis for the period in residence, but cancellation of the residence contract will also result in forfeiture of all or part of the residence deposit. Refer to section 4.3 of the Residence Contract Terms & Conditions for further information. The effective date for refund will be the date belongings are removed from the room, a room check made and the room key, post office key and university ID card returned; or, the authorized effective date for withdrawal, whichever is later. Students to whom a room assignment has been made and who withdraw and subsequently reregister up to and including the 5th class day will be liable for any penalties incurred through forfeiture of the residence contract. Meal plan fees will be refunded on a pro rata basis for the operating expense portion, plus the unused food portion, for authorized cancellation of a contract. The effective date for refunds will be the date on which the student notifies the Office of Registrarial Services regarding the withdrawal, except if a student withdraws before or after the first day of classes and reregisters before or on the 5th day of classes, cancellation of the contract is not permitted. Outstanding Library fines and charges are deducted from the calculated refund. Affordable Housing Fee - refundable from CSA Office only.
