Financial holds

  • Financial holds - Undergraduate students

    In accordance with our policies and important dates, undergraduate students are responsible for ensuring their fees are paid in full or have arranged an approved deferment by the posted deadline. Once this deadline has passed, late charges and holds will be applied to all unpaid accounts.  Note: Failure to pay fees or arrange an approved deferment by payment deadlines may result in deregistration from registered courses.

    For more information about financial holds, please contact connect@ontariotechu.ca

  • Financial holds - Graduate students

    In accordance with our policies and important dates, graduate students are responsible for ensuring their fees are paid in full or have submitted an approved payroll deduction by the posted deadline. Once this deadline has passed, late charges and holds will be applied to all unpaid accounts.

    Students with a hold are unable to attend classes, access course material, use the university facilities or receive payment from sources (including TAs, RAs and GRAs and/or other scholarships/awards) and are unable to register for future terms. Students who are unable to register will be considered inactive until the hold has been cleared and the School of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies has been notified.

    If you become eligible to register before three consecutive terms have elapsed, you may apply to be reinstated into the program. If you are not eligible to register by the end of the third elapsed term, you will be considered withdrawn and must formally reapply to continue in your program. Reinstatement and readmission is not guaranteed and fees may apply.

    For more information on inactivation and other registration issues, please contact connect@ontariotechu.ca


Important information

  • Once registered, you are academically and financially responsible for your course(s) unless you withdraw officially by the deadlines. Failure to attend does not constitute withdrawal.
  • The university charges your account each term. Necessary payment arrangements must be made for each and every term.
  • Late fees will be applied to your account if your tuition is not paid by the due date. Interest will be calculated at a monthly rate of 1.5 per cent compounded on the monthly balance. This will be added to your tuition account on the last day of every month.
  • All communication regarding your student account is sent to your student email account, so please ensure that you check your email regularly. Your student account is also available on MyOntarioTech, select Current students, in the Paying your fees box, select Account summary.
