Tuition Fees Payment Deadlines
When are my tuition fees due?
At Douglas College students register one term/semester at a time and are responsible for paying tuition fees for that term by the applicable deadline date:
For Summer Semester 2010, there are three payment deadlines:
| First Deadline: | April 19, 2010 (April 12, 2010 for international students) Pay all fees for courses you are currently enrolled in to avoid deregistration of all courses. |
| Second Deadline: | May 6, 2010 All fees are due and payable to avoid deregistration of all unpaid courses. |
| Third Deadline: |
May 25, 2010 |
You must pay particular attention to fee payment deadline dates. Students who miss a fee payment deadline or make only a partial payment may be deregistered from all courses. It is your responsibility to reregister in your courses if you are deregistered.
How can I pay my fees?
More information is available in the Registration Guide.
Fee Deferral
If you are relying on student loan funding to pay for fees you may qualify for a fee deferral. Eligible students, who have been approved for student loan funding, may complete a fee deferral form to postpone payment until their student loan funding is available. An on-line fee deferral application is available under Financial Aid (secure website) until April 12, 2010.
After April 12, 2010
Attach a copy of your Notification of Assessment letter to your fee deferral form and submit it to the Cashier's Office before the fee payment deadline. The fee deferral form is available on-line here. Students who must pay a deposit to confirm acceptance of a seat in a limited enrolment program may also qualify to defer payment of their deposit. Contact the Financial Aid Office when you receive your conditional acceptance offer.
Sponsorship
A letter of authorization must be sent from your sponsor to the attention of Cathy Luder in the Finance Department, room 4740 - New Westminster Campus. The letter must indicate the period of time the sponsor is covering, what costs are being covered (tuition and/or books) and the amount of funding. This letter can be faxed to (604) 527-5555. All enquiries can be directed to Cathy Luder at (604)527-5374. This letter must be received before the fee payment deadline.
Scholarship/Bursary Recipients
If the funds are to be held in trust by Douglas College, send a copy of your notification of award letter to the attention of the Finance Department. The letter can be faxed to (604) 527-5555. All enquiries can be directed to Sandy Struthers at (604) 527-5428. This letter must be received before the fee payment deadline. If a donor requires verification of enrolment before releasing your funds, you need to obtain this proof from the Registrar's Office (Room 2700, New Westminster Campus or Room A1450, David Lam Campus in Coquitlam).
Good luck and best wishes for a successful semester!
