Note: Students enrolled in commerce or computer science subject POSts, or the bioinformatics and computational biology subject POSt pay higher fees; see Academic Fees for Commerce or Computer Science Subject POSts, or the Bioinformatics and Computational Biology Subject POSts.

To be automatically registered for the fall-winter session you must enrol in courses AND pay at least the minimum first installment of your fees (or officially defer them) by August 31. If you pay after August 31, you must present proof of payment to your college registrar's office by September 19 to be registered manually.

If your payment has not been received or officially deferred by September 19, you will be removed from your courses.

IMPORTANT: Students on waiting lists will be added to space made available at any time. You may not be able to be reinstated to a course that you have been removed from because students on waiting lists may have filled the space created.

Students who have been removed from courses and had their registrations cancelled (on September 19) will have to show proof of payment before they can attempt to enrol in courses again.

You can check to see if you are registered on the SWS. Log on and select "Timetables" from the main menu. Display your timetable for the current session-on the upper right portion of the timetable is your "Status." If it is "REG," your registration is complete. If your status is "INVIT," you risk being removed from your courses!

You should check your status at least three days before September 19 to be safe!

Electronic payments

Once you enrol in courses, you can pay your fees using Electronic payment (see below). You can obtain an up-to-date balance on ROSI immediately after changing your course enrolments.

You can pay your fees using telephone or online banking if your bank offers this service. Call your financial institution's telephone/online banking service and provide them with your account number and the name "University of Toronto." Your account number is displayed on the invoice format of your account on the Student Web Service. The account number consists up to the first five characters of your surname (in capital letters) and 10 numbers which is your student number with leading zeroes. Make sure you distinguish between the letter "O" and the number "zero".

Sample account numbers

• Anthony Cho's student number is 123456789; his account number is CHO0123456789.
• Jane Seto-Paul's student number is 987654321; hyphens and spaces are not used, so her account number is SETOP0987654321.
• Christine Elias' student number is 934578; her account number is ELIAS000934578.

When you pay your fees by telephone or online, be sure to make a note of the confirmation number in case there is a delay in processing your payment. If you pay after August 31, make sure you get proof of payment, and proof of the date you paid, and show it to your college registrar's office.

Payment with paper invoices

• If your first course enrolment for the 2007-2008 fall-winter sessions occurs by August 30, you will be mailed a paper invoice.
• If your first course enrolment for the 2007-2008 fall-winter sessions occurs after August 30, you must pick up your fees invoice at your college registrar's office, or your college bursar's office (St. Michael's and Trinity students), or at Student Accounts, 215 Huron St., 2nd floor.

Official Registration

Registration will occur automatically if you pay at least the minimum first installment of your fees (or officially defer them) by August 31. If you pay after August 31, you must present proof of payment to your college registrar's office by September 19 to be registered manually on ROSI by the registrarial staff.

If your payment has not been received or officially deferred by September 19, you will be removed from your courses.

Just taking courses starting in January?

If you enrol in 2008 winter session courses only, you must pay at least the first installment of fees by September 19 in order to avoid being removed from your courses. If you enrol in 2008 winter session courses only after September 19, you must request a fees invoice from your college and pay at least the first installment of fees as soon as possible and no later than January 18, 2008. You must also present proof of payment at your college registrar's office by January 18, 2008, or you will be removed from your courses.

Owe fees from a previous session?

Students with outstanding financial obligations to the University (including tuition and residence charges) must pay their fees in full before registering in the next academic session. Fees payments will be applied first to outstanding debt from previous sessions before being applied to the 2007-2008 fall-winter sessions. Please ensure that your payment is sufficient to cover all arrears as well as the minimum first payment, or you won't be registered.

OSAP deferrals

If you have no outstanding fees from previous sessions and if you applied for OSAP by the specified deadline (see below), you may request deferral of your fees payment. This deferral is not automatic! The deferral must be completed at Student Accounts or your college registrar's office by August 31. If your deferral has not been processed by September 19, you will be removed from your courses. For details, see the Student Accounts web site or contact your college registrar's office.

Returning students should apply for OSAP by May 31 and new students by June 30. It is important that you meet these deadlines; if you do so, you may request a fees deferral, your OSAP entitlement will be determined before classes begin, and you can budget accordingly.

If you need to defer your fees but did not apply for OSAP by the deadline you should go to Admissions & Awards, 315 Bloor Street West, to request a deferral form.

Breakdown of fees

Students enrolled in commerce, computer science, or bioinformatics & computational biology subject POSts pay higher fees; see Academic Fees for Commerce, Computer Science, or Bioinformatics & Computational Biology Subject POSts. Compulsory fees for registration consist of academic, incidental and ancillary fees. Academic fees are calculated on a per-course basis and vary depending on your program and year of admission to the Faculty.

Fees for the 2007-2008 fall-winter sessions had not been approved by the University's Business Board and Governing Council at press time. Check the Student Accounts web site for updated fees amounts. The updated fees will be reflected on your fees invoice and on your financial account on the SWS.

Paying fees for changed course loads

If you change your course load after you have received your fees invoice, another fees invoice will not be produced for you before your payment is due. To find out how much you owe, go to the SWS and select "Financial Accounts" from the main menu. Your current balance is displayed at the top of that page. You can use your original fees invoice to pay the new amount: go to your bank and fill in the amount you are paying in the "Amount Paid" space at the bottom of the invoice (the preprinted "invoice total" will be ignored by the bank).

What happens if I don't pay/defer on time?

If your payment or deferral has not been received by the University by September 19, you will be removed from your courses and your space may be filled by a student from a waiting list. If you are reinstated because of late fees payment, you will also be charged a late registration fee. You will only be reinstated into courses if there is space. Refer to the instructions above on how to pay fees.

How do I know that my enrolment is complete?

You can check to see if you are registered on the SWS. Log on and select "Timetables" from the main menu. Display your timetable for the current session-on the upper right portion of the timetable is your "Status." If it is "REG," your registration is complete. If your status is "INVIT," you risk being removed from your courses!
