Deferred Admission
Students who defer their admission to the University will be subject to the tuition rates that are in effect for the term in which they are starting and not the term in which they were originally admitted.
Degree Transfers
Canadian (excluding residents of Quebec) and International undergraduate students and students in non-research graduate programs who transfer degrees will be charged the tuition rate in effect for newly admitted students to those degrees in their term of transfer.
Break in EnrolmentÌý
Quebec Residents
Quebec Residents may need to reprove their status if they have been absent (ie. not enrolled) for more than 2 semesters (not counting the Summer term). Students may verify their legal status in Minerva (select the appropriate term) to confirm that the QC residency status is still active. Semesters for which students are recorded as being away on an officially approved leave of absence are not counted as enrolment semesters.

International and Canadian Students (policy as of the Fall 2024 term)
All Canadian and International undergraduate or graduate level non-research programs) who are absent (ie not enrolled) for 4 or more terms (including summer), will be charged the tuition rate in effect for newly admitted students in the term in which they resume their studies. Note that a term of withdrawal from the University is included in the calculation of the break in enrolment when students are not charged tuition for that term. Terms for which students are registered on an officially approved leave of absence, exchange or study away program are not calculated as part of a break in enrolment.
This policy is not applicable to Visiting and Special students as students in these categories always pay the fees of the new academic year.
