Undergraduate registration

What's next?

• 1. MyCampus: Your student web account

  Once you have paid your $500 non-refundable deposit, your Applicant Portal becomes your MyCampus web account.

  You can use this account to:

  • Preview and register for courses.
  • Update your personal information, including your emergency contact.
  • Set up your student email.
  • Apply for bursary/awards and view status updates.
  • Request transcripts and Verfication of Enrolment letters.
  • Check your account summary and any outstanding balances.

  We recommend you visit your MyCampus portal frequently.

• 2. Your student email: Communicating with you

  Through a partnership with Google, our undergraduates, graduates, alumni, faculty and staff have access to accounts (firstname.lastname@ontariotechu.net) powered by G Suite for Education (previously known as UOITnet). This is a rich suite of communication and collaboration tools designed to enhance our ability to work together. G Suite for Education is available to users via any internet-connected computer or mobile device.

  Visit our Information Technology Services website to see what your OntarioTechu.Net G Suite for Education services include. Instructions on how to activate your student email account for the first time can be found at the bottom of the page.

  Please note: Newly admitted students must change the default network password prior to accessing the university network, Canvas and student email accounts. The default password can be found under the Important information section after logging in to MyCampus.

  All official communication from the Office of the Registrar will be sent to your student email account and posted on the OT Undergraduate tab on MyCampus. You are responsible for checking both channels regularly for information such as course registration, examination information and add/drop deadlines.

• 3. Academic Calendar

  The Academic Calendar provides you with information and guidelines pertaining to your studies. It is important to review so you can know what your role and responsibilities are to successfully complete your degree. Here are some key areas to get you started:

  • Academic schedule: Your important dates and deadlines for registration, fee payment, exam period.
  • Degree requirements: All the credits you are required to complete your degree.
  • Academic regulations: The rules you are responsible for knowing and following as an Ontario Tech student.
• 4. Tuition fees and payments

  Important notes about your tuition fees:

  • As you register, your student account is updated in real-time to reflect your current amount owing.
  • Your fees are tied to your course registration.
  • You are charged on a per-course basis.
  • You can view your current amount owing by going to your account summary by term on MyCampus, under the OT Undergraduate tab's Helpful Links section.

  Once you have registered, you have full access to your student account information and what fees you owe. The university does not automatically issue invoices or receipts but should you need one, they are available upon request by contacting the Office of the Registrar.

  You are responsible for paying your semester fees in full by the payment deadlines. Failure to pay fees or arrange an approved deferment by stated fee payment deadlines could result in de-registration from courses, late fees and financial holds on your account.

• 5. Your privacy

  Information supplied via the web registration system will be used for the purposes of registration, decisions on your academic status, academic advising and to provide you with information related to your studies at the university. It may be shared with your course instructors, the Student Union and other educational institutions to which you have applied or have been enrolled.

• 6. Confirm your year level

  Your year level for registration purposes may differ from the number of years you have attended the university. If you have applied for transfer credits or are returning to studies at the university, confirm your year level.

• 7. Get ready to register

  You will receive an email reminder prior to registration. Before receiving that email, you can still get prepared. You can preview available courses and pre-plan your schedule to enable a smoother registration.

  Select your semester from the course registration guide. 

  For graduate studies inquiries, please contact the School of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies.

  Please note: Prior to registering, you will be prompted to agree to a Registration Contract. It is important to fully understand this contract, as clicking 'I Agree' binds you to the deadlines, fees and regulations associated with your registration.

• 8. Check out our Open Educational Resources
  At Ontario Tech University, we're constantly looking for ways to adapt to the ever-changing landscape by exploring and delivering flexible and dynamic ways of learning. One approach is to use Open Educational Resources (OER) in academic programs. For more information, please visit our OER website.
