Maintaining Student Status Fees

Description

Cost

Annual Active Fee:
Assessed to M.T.S. or M.Th. students who have completed all course requirements and paid their thesis or project fees, but who have yet to “pass” their research paper, thesis or project in any given academic year. Failure to maintain registration status in this way results in a lapse of registration and requires the student to apply for readmission.

$210.00

Annual Continuing Fee:
Assessed to students in all programs who do not register for a course and wish to maintain program status.  Failure to maintain registration status in this way results in a lapse of registration and requires the student re-apply.  Students seeking re-admission may be required to meet new admission and program requirements.

$210.00

Readmission Fee
For students who have withdrawn from the Dip.Th., B.Th., M.T.S., M.Div., M.Th., or M.R.E. program or have let their registration lapse without paying the Annual Continuing or Active Fee.

Payment Schedule

Fees are due IN FULL on the first day of classes.

  • $25.00 is charged on all NSF cheques.
  • Tuition refunds: fees for a cancelled or dropped course can either be refunded if requested or applied to another course. Cheques will be issued within 30 days of course cancellation or approval of a dropped course.

Outstanding Accounts

Outstanding fees in the library, bookstore or registration office will result in the student’s grades being withheld until the account has been paid in full.

Tuition Refund Schedule
  • 100% tuition refund for courses dropped by the end of the second week of classes. Second week is defined as a class that has met for six hours, or, for internet courses, lesson, or unit two.
  • 50% tuition refund for courses dropped from the end of the second week to the fourth week of classes.

This refund schedule applies for intersession by number of times the class has met rather than by the number of weeks of the session.

Please note that the C.C.S. program has its own refund policy- see C.C.S. payment policy for more details.

International Student Tuition And Fees Repayment Note

International students must pay the Application Fee when they apply. International students who are not third-party funded (such as by a diocese etc.) must pay 50% of the tuition and fees by the withdrawal date each semester. All remaining fees are due on the last day of classes each semester. The college’s standard Late Fee applies after these dates. Students having outstanding fees will have their grades withheld until fees are paid in full.

Outstanding Accounts

Outstanding fees in the library, bookstore or registration office will result in the student’s grades being withheld until the account has been paid in full.
