Failure to pay fees may result in the withdrawal of an offer of admission. It is essential that students pay fees by the stipulated deadline dates.
A refund for a course or program will be issued only if a student applies to the Office of Registrar by the close of business on or before the tenth school day of the course or program.
Note: $100 ($500 for international students) is non-refundable along with any penalty charges (e.g. late, split).
The following additional fees and service charges may apply to some students. These fees are updated annually and currently include the following:
An additional fee of $440 – $660 (in some cases added to the academic semesters) will be charged to all qualified students. Co-op fees are non-refundable in the event the student does not qualify for the co-op placement for academic reasons or if they withdraw after the last day to receive a refund in that semester.
Students may be required to complete specific courses or achieve specific grades before being allowed to proceed with a co-op or work term.
Note: Fees for international placements may be higher.
Students taking postsecondary diploma and certificate co-op programs within the School of Applied Technology will be charged a co-op fee. Students in the three-year technology co-op diploma programs pay a fee of $110 per semester for the first four semesters. Students in the two-year technician co-op diploma programs pay a fee of $220 per semester for the first two semesters. Co-op fees cover the costs associated with administration and services provided by the school's co-op services office, including job search skills courses, student job search assistance, marketing to employers (marketing campaigns, job fairs, career networking sessions, industry panels, on-campus interviews, and other employer events), the posting of jobs, employer referral services, and, maintaining the employer contact management system, co-op job portal, and co-op website. The co-op fee is payable for all students registered in co-op programs. The fee does not guarantee co-op placement or employment. The fee is not an individual placement fee and is non-refundable.
Some programs include lab fees as part of the tuition. The charge is listed on the fee invoice and is due by the tuition fee due date.
An equipment deposit is levied for several programs and covers breakage of equipment used by students. This amount is refundable at the end of the year after clearance authorization is received from the program co-ordinator. This deposit will be identified in the information mailed to all students prior to enrolment.
College graduates need to communicate effectively. Employers are requiring our graduates to be increasingly more skilled in their language abilities and must know how to read and interpret information and communicate their ideas both orally and in writing. As part of their program requirements, Humber students are required to complete a number of Communications courses. These courses are designed to help them perform the writing tasks that will be expected of them in their program courses and later on in their careers.
All students are required to take an assessment test to determine their language proficiency. On the basis of the results of the test, some students may be exempted from taking one or more of their required Communications courses. However, some students may be required to take a remedial writing course before being permitted to take their required Communications course(s).
To better serve our growing population of second language learners, specialized English as a second language (ESL) courses are now offered as part of the Communications curricula. Students are placed directly into their appropriate level ESL course on the basis of their assessment test. Successful completion of these courses will satisfy any Communications requirements.
Extra courses will require the payment of additional fees.
All first semester technology and most business students are assessed in mathematics. Based on the assessment results, some students will be required to enrol in an additional mathematics course to help improve their mathematical skills. These students will then take the other required mathematics courses in more senior semesters. Our experience has shown that the extra mathematics course significantly enhances students’ abilities to achieve good results in subsequent business and technology courses in their program. Extra courses will require the payment of additional fees.
Additional charges will apply when:
Note: Late payment of fees may result in the loss of a program seat. Humber is not obligated to hold seats for students who fail to pay fees by the due date. Late payments are accepted only if space remains in the program.
