In order to improve service to students by avoiding line ups, the University strongly suggests that students pay using on-line banking.

Information about fee payment is available on the web at <http://mta.ca/Registrars_Office/Tuition_and_fees/Fee_payment/Fee_payment/> . Cheques, bank drafts or money orders, made payable to "Mount Allison University", can be mailed to the Registrar's Office or placed in the drop box located at the Registrar's Office. Fees may also be paid through telephone banking or on-line services. For information please contact your bank. Due to the costs involved for the University, and ultimately for its students, payments by credit card are not accepted.

There are three circumstances in which students can reduce the amount of the above payments. The first is when students have been awarded Mount Allison scholarships and bursaries; please refer to the offer letter for information regarding disbursement. The second is when students have proof of the amount of the Canada Student Loan they will receive. The third is when students have an external sponsor who will be invoiced by the University; this category does not include external scholarships and bursaries.

When the amount paid has been reduced because students will receive a loan from the Canada Student Loans Program or have external sponsorships, temporary registration status will be granted. It is the student's responsibility to ensure that government or sponsorship funding is received by the University by September 30 or January 31, as the case may be. If the University has not received the funds by these dates, students must make temporary financial arrangements through some other source to meet their financial obligations to the University or contact the Financial Aid and Awards Counsellor in the Registrar's Office to discuss bridge financing.

University services may be revoked in the case of dishonoured payments or failure to meet the defined payment schedule. Students wishing to have their services reinstated, including reinstatement of their academic program, may be charged a services reinstatement fee of $100.

Interest will be applied to outstanding balances at the rate of 1.5% per month (19.56% per annum compounded).

Letters of appeal from students appealing their academic standing at the end of the academic session will only be forwarded to the Admissions and Re-admissions Committee for consideration if there are no outstanding fees payable on the students' accounts.

A $75 late payment fee will be added to accounts not paid in full by the prescribed due dates in 4.3.3 and 4.3.4.

Absence from classes does not constitute withdrawal.

Full-time students who wish to withdraw from the University must begin the process with the Director of Student Life located in the Student Life Office, Wallace McCain Student Centre. Withdrawal is not effective until the Director of Student Life has approved the withdrawal request. The date of withdrawal for the purpose of fee administration will be the date this approval is given.

Full-time and part-time students who wish to withdraw from one or more courses will be able to withdraw from all but the last course on-line using Connect@MTA. The date of withdrawal for the purpose of fee administration will be the date the withdrawal is effective on Connect@MTA. There will be no fee charged for courses dropped within the first week of classes. For withdrawals after the first week of classes, fees will be calculated as 15% of the tuition for the term times the number of weeks or part weeks since the first day of classes. There is no credit (refund) given after the sixth week of classes.

Students changing from full-time to part-time status should contact the Registrar's Office regarding their fee obligations.

Withdrawals from non-credit courses will be assessed on a per course basis depending on the nature and duration of the course.

Any inquiries regarding the calculation/proration of tuition fees on academic withdrawal should be directed to Financial Services. The procedure concerning the calculation of any refunds for students with United States (FFELP) loans is available on the web at <www.mta.ca> .

Refunds are calculated from the date that written, faxed or e-mailed notification of withdrawal is received by the Registrar's Office.

Full time students who wish to withdraw from a correspondence course that is part of their full time course load and for which they have not paid an additional fee over full time tuition, will only be eligible for a refund if their status changes to part time. These students should contact the Registrar's Office regarding their eligibility for a credit.

All correspondence course refunds are calculated from the first day of the term and the date that the written request for withdrawal is received by the Registrar's Office. Fee credits will be calculated as the tuition fee paid for the course minus 15% times the number of weeks including the week of withdrawal, since the beginning of the term. There is no credit (refund) given after 6 weeks of registration.

Refunds will not be given to students who do not adhere to these deadlines.

Refunds are calculated from the withdrawal date of a course dropped through CONNECT. Within 24 hours of making a change students should confirm their registration on MY CLASS SCHEDULE. If it does not reflect the addition, change, or deletion, or if students have problems viewing their schedule through CONNECT, they should contact the Registrar's Office.

There will be no fee charged for 3 credit courses having 2 classes per week dropped up to and including the last day for change in registration.* Fee credits will be calculated as the tuition fee paid for the course minus 15% times the number of classes including the week of withdrawal, since the course began. There is no credit (refund) given after 6 classes.

Refunds will not be given to students who do not adhere to these deadlines.

*Any course having more than 2 classes per week may be charged a withdrawal fee if dropped before the last day for change in registration. These courses may also be calculated differently for withdrawals. Please see the Registrar's Office.

Students wishing to withdraw from residence and/or the meal plan must begin the process with the Director of Student Life located in the Student Life Office, Wallace McCain Student Centre. Withdrawal is not effective until the Director of Student Life has approved the withdrawal request. The date of withdrawal for the purpose of fee administration will be the date this approval is given, or the date students have checked out of residence and keys have been returned, whichever is later.

The student's account will be adjusted to reflect residence and/or meal plan charges as follows:

Students who decide during the Christmas break not to return to the University in January must so advise the University by December 31 to be treated for fee purposes as a December withdrawal. This may be done even if University offices are closed by e-mail to <regoffice@mta.ca> , or by faxing the Registrar's Office; fax (506) 364-2272, or leaving a voice mail message with the Director of Student Life; phone (506) 364-2255. Any student who wishes counselling before making this decision should so inform the Director of Student Life by December 31, by voice mail if University offices are closed.

Students entering residence and purchasing meal plans in the middle of a term who subsequently withdraw should contact the Registrar's Office regarding their charges for the term. Any inquiries should be directed to the Registrar's Office.

Payments will only be made to students from their accounts with the University if, and to the extent that, their accounts have a credit balance. Students may forfeit a scholarship or bursary or residence bursary award from Mount Allison if they do not complete the Fall/Winter academic terms and this may affect whether there is a refund on withdrawal and the amount of any such refund. Furthermore, if any portion of a student's fees was paid by Canada Student Loan Program, the University is obliged to remit any refund upon withdrawal to the Canada Student Loan Program, or student's bank, for credit towards their government student loan.

Students required to leave the University or its residences for failing to meet the required payment schedule, or for academic or disciplinary reasons, will be required to complete the withdrawal process and will be responsible for the charges detailed in sections 4.5.1, 4.5.2, 4.5.3, 4.5.4 and 4.5.5.
