If you have applied for OSAP, government assistance from another province, or received a scholarship from U of T, you may request a fee deferral.
Fee Deferrals
To register for the upcoming session, U of T requires each student to make a specified minimum payment toward their tuition fees or defer their fees by the deadline to pay. Students who fail to register by the deadline will be removed from their courses.
The University understands that students receiving OSAP or a scholarship from the Faculty or U of T will receive their funds at a later date. In these instances, students may request a fee deferral to become registered without making the minimum payment.
Please note that fee deferrals are not automatic. Students can defer their fees through ACORN before the deadline to pay or defer fees. If you successfully defer your fees, you will be registered for the Fall Term. However, beginning October 15, a service charge of 1.5% per month will be applied to any outstanding fees.
OSAP Recipients
If you have applied for OSAP, you can defer your tuition fees, which will allow you to register without payment. You must defer your fees through ACORN before the deadline to pay or defer fees.
If you are unable to defer your fees online, contact the Registrar's Office.
Scholarship Recipients
If you are receiving a scholarship from the University or Faculty, you may be eligible to defer your tuition. Your total scholarship(s) must be equal to or exceed the minimum payment to register, which is noted on your fees invoice.
However, if the scholarship does not cover the entire minimum amount, you will have to pay the difference by the deadline to pay or defer your fees.
Government Assistance from Other Provinces
If you are not from Ontario but have been granted government assistance from another Canadian province, you may defer some or all of your minimum payment to register. If your loan does not cover the entire minimum amount, you will have to pay the difference by the deadline to pay or defer your fees.
