ADMISSIONS ACCEPTANCE GUIDE 2012/2013 - Seneca College

Payment Options*
Payment Option A: Full semester one fees should be paid before
the due date on your invoice. Students paying full fees by the due
date will not incur a late payment charge.
Payment Option B: If you are experiencing financial difficulty
and have applied for a student loan (OSAP), a partial payment of
$400.00 is required by the due date on your invoice. However, if
you choose Payment Option “B”, please consider the following:
1. A $65.00 late fee payment charge will automatically be
applied to your student account.
2. A Promissory Note form must be submitted with payment.
This form indicates when the balance of fees are to be paid,
normally within two weeks of the start of classes; however,
once notified of your OSAP loan, it should be negotiated
immediately and not delayed until the balance of fees are
due. The Promissory Note may be completed when making
an in-person payment or may be downloaded, printed and
mailed with your payment:

* Payment Options pertain to domestic students only. New
International students must pay full fees by the fees due date.
Tuition Fees Refund
In accordance with the policy of the Ministry of Training, Colleges
and Universities, if official notification of withdrawal is submitted
on or before the tenth day of classes:
• Full tuition fees, less $100.00 will be refunded.
• Fees collected in advance for future semesters will be refunded
in full.
Note: This does not apply to international students. International
students have a separate fee refund policy.
Pay at a Canadian Financial Institution
Take your Student Account Invoice, along with your fee payment,
to your financial institution. It can take up to 5 business days to
have your payment reach the College so make sure you make your
payment at least 5 days before the fees due date on the invoice. If
you are required to show your receipt in the future, have the front
of your invoice stamped by the teller or attach the transaction slip
to your invoice.
Pay by Credit Card via Mail or Fax
On the tear-off portion of your Student Account Invoice, clearly
write your credit card number and expiry date, then mail it back to
us in the pre-addressed envelope. Alternatively, you may prefer to
send this information to the fax number provided.
Pay Using Telephone or PC Banking
Three easy steps will allow you to make your fee payments using
this option. Here's how:
• Set Seneca up on your list of ‘payees’ with your financial
institution.
• Your 9 digit student ID number will act as your account number
• Specify your payment amount
Your fee payment will then be forwarded to us for processing, and
applied to your student account. It can take up to 5 business days
to have your payment reach the College.
Pay by Telephone Using Your Credit Card
Call us at 416-491-5050, ext. 22800. Be ready to provide your
name, student number, program of study and your credit card
number and expiry date to one of our Admissions Advisors. We
will process your fee payment over the telephone. Please expect
our phone lines to be busy. We accept payment by Visa, Master-
Card, and American Express.

payment. Valid in-person payment methods are:
• Visa, MasterCard or American Express credit card
• Interac Direct Payment

Pay by Certified Cheque or Money Order via Mail
Using the pre-addressed cashier’s envelope in the acceptance
package, mail in the tear-off section of the invoice with a certified
cheque or money order. Please make it payable to Seneca College.

your invoice, so mail your payment at least 3 business days ahead
