If you register and subsequently decide not to attend, it is your responsibility to cancel your registration. This must be done online by the approved dates (last date for a full refund), or in writing on a discontinuation form at the Registrar’s Office.
If by the last date to discontinue courses without a penalty you have not filled out a permission to pay later, and you have not paid for your course(s), your registration will be discontinued at this point, and the $100 tuition deposit will not be refunded. To be reinstated, the applicable late fee ($60 Fall/Winter sessions; $25 Spring/Summer sessions) will be added at that time, and the applicable reinstatement fee ($25 part-time; $50 full-time) will be charged.
Payment of fees constitutes part of registration precedures. Fees not paid in full by the end of the second week of the semester (during regular business hours, 8:30 am – 4:30 pm) are subject to late fees: (Subject to change)
Full-Time Students – $60.00
Part-Time Students – $30.00
Note: Where a student cannot pay by the end of the second week of the semester, they are asked to complete a “permission to pay later” form, which can be found at http://www.upei.ca/accounting/files/accounting/Permission_to_pay_later.pdf, and have it approved by the Accounting Office. This does not waive the late fee but does keep the student enrolled in his/her courses.Full-Time Students (subject to change)
