Financial information and payment methods

PROGRAM INCIDENTAL FEES

For certain programs, the college may apply a fee over and above tuition and compulsory ancillary fees for learning materials and supplies. The cost of those will be included on your fee estimate.

ADDITIONAL COURSE FEES

You may be assessed for additional tuition fees for each course hour taken in excess of the normal
full-time load for your program level.  It is recommended that you speak to your student advisor before you add or
drop courses.

MISCELLANEOUS FEES:

* HST included on service charges (HST #107270969RT0001)

Please note: Post-Secondary full-time students pay the graduation fee in the first-year ancillary fees.

FAILURE TO PAY FEES

You must pay your fees by the payment deadline.  Failure to pay fees or the late payment of fees may result in the withdrawal of an offer of admission or the loss of your place in your program. The college is not obliged to hold a seat for you if you fail to pay your fees by the published payment deadlines. If you fail to pay your fees by the published payment dates you will be charged a late payment fee of $150 per academic term. Late payment fees are non-refundable.

REFUND INFORMATION

International students MUST contact the International Office for information regarding withdrawal or refunds.

Students who have landed in Canada and have a valid Canadian study permit and wish to withdraw from Durham College for any reason including transferring to another college or returning home, must visit the International Office to complete and sign an official withdrawal form to be eligible for any refund. Please note that a deduction of approximately $2500 CAD will be applied to the original payment, prior to the refund being issued to the student.

Students must submit all necessary documentation in a secure manner when possible (in person or by email) for the refund, by the deadline of 4:00 p.m. (EST) on the withdrawal deadline. For any requests received after this deadline, no refund for first semester fees will be issued. For withdrawals after the withdrawal deadline, only subsequent semester fees paid will be reimbursed.

The refund will be transferred to the student’s Flywire account or personal bank account. No cheques will be issued.

Provided that all documentation and conditions outlined above are met, a refund will be authorized for the total fees paid, less the amounts to be withheld per the refund policy, plus any direct costs incurred to process refunds, such as wire transfer fees charged by the bank.

*If the reason you need a refund isn’t shown then please contact the international office at intlfinance@durhamcollege.ca with a detailed message as to why you need to refund your tuition.
