CONTINUING JD STUDENTS
Fall 2022 Tuition Payment Reminder

updated July 14, 2022

Deadline for Receipt of Payment

The deadline for the receipt (or obtaining a deferral) of the Minimum Payment in order to become an officially registered student for 2022-2023 is September 6th for all continuing upper year students

Only when this payment is received and processed (or the deferral granted), will you be officially registered, which enables the university to provide confirmation of your enrolment. 

If granted a deferral, the deadline for the receipt of payment of Fall Fees (Tuition Fees + Incidental/Ancillary fees + $57 system access fee) is September 30th, 2022.
 
All payments must be RECEIVED at UofT Student Accounts by the listed deadlines.
 
Students are responsible for planning sufficient time for payments to reach the University’s bank account and to be recorded in the student’s ACORN account by the payment due date. The transfer of funds from major Canadian financial institutions normally takes three to five business days, however the transfer from Canadian credit unions and financial institutions from outside Canada can take much longer.
 
If you check your account on ACORN and do not see the payment posted to your Financial account, check again in a few days. There are daily updates from the bank to the University.
 
Make sure you keep your receipt or your verification/confirmation number. It is your proof of payment and will be requested to follow up on any payment problems.

 

Late Payment & Interest Charges

This applies to all students, whether receiving Faculty of Law funding or not.
 
For any UofT student, any outstanding or unpaid Fall Fees on your UofT student account on ACORN is subject to a monthly service charge of 1.5% (19.56% per annum) by the university starting October 17th, 2022 and as of the 15th of every month until paid in full.
 
For more information about these service charges visit the Student Accounts webpage http://www.fees.utoronto.ca.  For the official fees penalties, please select from the main bar at the top of the page, Payment Deadlines & Penalties, then select Restrictions on Past Due Accounts, then select the appropriate penalty.

How Much To Pay?

I did not apply for the Faculty of Law Financial Aid Program

  • Pay the balance for 2022 Fall Term Fees that appears on your fees invoice on your ACORN student account. Invoices for 2022-2023 are expected to be available in ACORN July 18th.

 

I applied for the Faculty of Law Financial Aid Program

  1. I have not yet received my aid assessment
    Pay the balance of your Fall fees that appears on your UofT student account on ACORN by the deadline. If you are also interested in getting a final financial aid assessment from the Faculty, please provide any missing documents to the Financial Aid Office.
     
  2. I received my aid assessment which did NOT include a bursary
    Pay the balance of your Fall fees that appears on your UofT student account on ACORN by the stated deadline.
     
  3. I received my aid assessment which included a bursary
    If your assessment was dated before September 30th 2022, then your entire bursary will be credited towards your UofT student account no later than October 15.
     
    Thus, please pay the difference between the balance that appears on your UofT student account on ACORN and your entire bursary as soon as possible, by the deadline i.e. do not wait for the bursary amount to be visible in ACORN in order to pay due fees.

    Example
    Total Fall fees due [A]Student account balance on ACORN as of Sept 23, 2022$17,300
    Law Bursary received [B]Faculty of Law bursary funding, as per notice of financial aid assessment

    Law bursary will be deposited by the law school directly into the student's ACORN account
    $7,000
    Amount due by Fall payment deadline
    [A minus B]

    Student to pay using all or any of:

    • government student loan (OSAP directly deposited)
    • student’s own funds
    • Scotiabank/TD line of credit
    $10,300

Total fees for 2022-2023

Payment of the total fees for the 2022-2023 academic year must be received in full by the end of the winter session April 30, 2023.
 
If your account is not paid in full by the end of the winter session, you will not be permitted to register at the university for the 2023-2024 academic year, and production of your transcript will be blocked until such time as your arrears are cleared.

How to Pay

All Students
Refer to our fees information webpage.

OSAP students
Effective 2018-19, changes to OSAP has resulted in a new process for paying fees and obtaining fee refunds.  In short, your Fall term portion of OSAP funding (i.e First Payment in your funding summary) will be directed from the government to the university to cover fall term tuition and ancillary fees, but excludes covering residence fees for staying in UofT housing.

Please read the changes online at Student Accounts. View the section More Information About Paying With OSAP Funding at the Student Accounts website
