Fees

trentu.ca/studentfinances

Fees are collected by the Student Accounts Office, Financial Services. Approved fees and complete details, including exact dates and deadlines, are posted online. Fees for registered students will be billed in August for the Fall term, December for the Winter term and April for the Summer term. Statements and invoice details are available on the portal under the Finance section. To assist new students in their financial planning, fee schedules for the current academic year are posted at trentu.ca/studentfinances/tuition-fees for reference.

Student Financial Responsibilities

Upon registering in a course, students accept responsibility for all financial obligations with the University regardless of how the fees are being funded (e.g., RESPs, government loans). It is also the responsibility of students to be aware of all financial and academic deadlines and to ensure they are officially registered in their courses through myTrent. Credit will not be issued for dropped courses once financial deadlines have passed. Payments will be applied to any balance owing from prior sessions before being applied to current session fees. Students who register for courses but do not attend classes are still responsible for all fees.

Addresses for Student Accounts Purposes

It is each student’s responsibility to ensure that the University has a valid mailing address for student fees, income tax receipts, and refund purposes. If students change their address on myTrent, all mailings will be distributed to this address.

Confidentiality of Student Fee Information

The handling of all personal information by the University is governed by the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. All information regarding student fees is treated as confidential and will normally only be released to individual students. In cases where sponsoring government and private agencies and organizations or individuals are paying fees on the student’s behalf, the student may wish to waive the right of privacy and allow the University to release information about the status of fees to avoid any interruption in payment. To ensure that the necessary fee information is available to sponsoring agencies, etc., students must complete the Release of Information Form, found under Forms on the Academic tab in myTrent.
