is referred to as a “Block”. SEN and STCW Safety Training
programs are offered throughout the year on an “as required”
basis.
Courses for the Transport Canada Engineering Officer
Certification Preparation Programs are scheduled during the
year.
Please contact the Office of the Registrar for a copy of the
schedules in place for the current Academic Year for the Deck
Officer / Engineering Officer Certification Preparation courses for

TUITION AND OTHER FEES
Tuition
All students enrolled in Transport Canada Certification
Preparation Programs are subject to the Marine Institute’s Fees
Payment Policy and are required to pay Marine Institute Student
Union and Health Plan fees. Further details are provided in the
Fees and Fees Payment information included in this Calendar.
Components for the Deck Officer Certification Preparation
Programs are offered in Block I and Block II of the Fall Semester
and Block III and Block IV of the Winter Semester. Any student
attending two consecutive blocks in a given semester, will choose
the components they wish to complete during the semester and
pay all applicable fees upon registration in Block I and Block III
respectively. Students who will be attending in Block II, or Block
IV only, will be required to register at the beginning of that Block.
This fee is in addition to the Confirmation Fee required for
the particular Block or course in which the student has been
admitted. Upon registration in these courses, the Confirmation
Fee is credited towards the student’s tuition charges and the
tuition fees owing are thereby reduced by that amount.
Refunds
Upon formal withdrawal from the Marine Institute or through
Drop/Add procedures, a student may be eligible for a refund or
credit towards tuition for the next scheduled course. This process
must be carried out using the Marine Institute’s Transport Canada
Registration form.
