When are Fees Due?

Fees are typically due in the middle of summer, prior to registration. Students who are eligible for and expect to receive government assistance or third-party sponsorship may request deferral of payment of tuition fees (see below). When paying tuition, students may pay in full or make an initial minimum payment.

Note: All fees and charges posted to student accounts are payable in full. If not paid in full, any outstanding account balance is subject to a monthly service charge of 1.5% per month compounded (19.56% per annum). The service charge is first assessed as of November 15 and as of the 15th of every month thereafter until paid in full. Outstanding charges on student accounts from prior sessions are subject to a service charge as of the 15th of every month until paid in full.

Fees invoices are provided on ROSI at www.rosi.utoronto.ca.

Registration

Students are deemed registered once the first payment of fees has been made and is registered on ROSI (www.rosi.utoronto.ca). This may take a minimum of five business days from the time of payment. First year students are expected to attend registration on Registration Day. All other students are expected to attend classes as scheduled on the first day of school. Students studying at another university under any Exchange Program must pay their fees prior to departure for the term away. In extenuating circumstances, JD students may be permitted to register late if special arrangements are made with the academic administration through the office of the Assistant Dean, Students.

Note: Late registration will affect your course selection as your access to e.Legal will be disabled until you have made a tuition payment or have arranged a tuition deferral (see below). Therefore, you will miss the opportunity to claim spots in waitlisted courses and adjust your course selection.

Deferral of Fees

You may be eligible to request to defer your tuition payment. A fees deferral means that you will be able to confirm your registration but are permitted to defer your tuition payment until the funds are received from your student loan, scholarship or third-party sponsorship.

Incoming transfer and letter of permission students must defer their tuition fees by August 5*, 2013. Continuing upper-year students must defer their tuition fees by Tuesday, September 3*, 2013.

Instructions on requesting a tuition deferral can be found in the Financial Aid tab of students' ROSI student accounts.
