There are two payment schedules to follow as the new academic session approaches:
- Registration deadline (before classes begin)
- Payment deadlines to minimize or avoid service charges (after classes begin)
After you have selected at least one course, your next step is to make a minimum payment or defer your fees using your government student loan or scholarship. You must complete this step by the deadline below in order to complete your registration and avoid being removed from courses.
Registration Deadline for All Students
| Activity | If you're studying in the Fall and Winter terms | If you're studying in the Winter term only |
|---|---|---|
| Check your invoice on ACORN | As early as July 15 | As early as July 15 |
| Minimum tuition payment deadline | August 14 | November 30 |
| Proof of Payment period (if you missed the payment deadline above) | August 15 - 27 at 4 pm | December 1 - 10 at 4pm |
| Fee deferral deadline on ACORN (troubleshoot common issues with fee deferral) | August 27 | December 10 |
| Financial cancellation date | August 28 | December 11 |
Service Charges
Once classes begin, your outstanding fees are subject to a monthly service charge fee at a rate of 1.5% compounded (19.56% per annum) until it is paid in full. Follow the appropriate schedule below to help you reduce your monthly service charge fees, or to avoid them altogether.
- Avoid service charges by paying your fees in full or minimize service charges by making monthly payments.
- If you make changes to your course load, or get into a requested/interim/waitlisted course, your invoice will update accordingly. Check your invoice for updates and make your payments on time.
- Drop courses by the refund deadline, if applicable.
