How To Pay

Tuition Deferral Policy 2010-11 

Students who have applied for funding through the Ontario Student Assistance Program (OSAP) will automatically have their tuition deferred.

Tuition deferrals will be issued in two stages.   In order to be eligible for a tuition deferral stage 1 you must meet the following conditions:

1)    Confirmed your seat

2)    Submitted an application for OSAP funding at least 5 days prior to your fee deadline due date.  (The college will electronically confirm with the ministry that an application has been submitted)

If you have done both of the above, your seat will be reserved for you. If you have not, you will be in jeopardy of losing your seat.

Tuition Deferral Stage 2

In order to be eligible to register in your classes in August, you must meet the following conditions:

1)    Have an  OSAP application that is complete and has  no outstanding issues (i.e. missing  documentation)

2)    Have a total OSAP  assessed award that is equal to or greater than your outstanding debt to the college (these would include but not limited to, tuition fees, residence fees, prior outstanding balances)

If both of these conditions are met, you will be allowed to register.  If not, you must either pay the difference between your outstanding debt and your total OSAP award or contact the Financial Aid Office.

All deferred tuition fees of $50.00 will be deducted from your first instalment of OSAP funding.

For further information regarding OSAP as well as awards, bursaries, scholarships, etc., please see Financial Aid
