- Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Undergraduate Instructional Fees: With few exceptions, tuition fees for undergraduate students are assessed by calculating the cost of each course in which the students are registered for credit, according to the following formula: fee index value x units of fee index. In Course Listings , the units of fee index are shown following the title of each course, and are indicated by fi. The fee index value is a dollar amount that is approved annually by the Board of Governors. The undergraduate fee index for 2018-2019 is $88.68. Students in Dental Hygiene programs will be assessed at a fee index of $109.42, which includes the regular Undergraduate fee index plus the Clinical Operations fee. Individual courses taken by students enrolled in the MD and DDS programs, and by some Special Students in the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry, are assessed using a fee index value of $147.62.
Audited courses are assessed using the formula “fee index value x units of fee index x 1/2.”

Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Graduate Instructional and Non-Instructional Fees
Changes in fees for Fall 2019/Winter 2020 were not available at the time of publication. Refer to www.gradstudies.ualberta.ca for 2019-2020 fees information and additional sample fees assessments.
All graduate students are assessed two types of fees: Instructional Fees and Non-Instructional Fees.
- Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Graduate Instructional Fees:
- Thesis-based graduate students admitted Fall 2011 and thereafter: Full-time thesis-based graduate students who are Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or Convention Refugees or Protected Persons as defined by Citizenship and Immigration Canada are assessed a program fee; the annual amount for 2018-2019 is $3,662.40 assessed as follows: $1,220.80 for Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Terms and $610.40 for Spring/Summer 2019 Terms. In addition, full-time thesis-based graduate students who are neither Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or Convention Refugees or Protected Persons as defined by Citizenship and Immigration Canada are assessed an international differential fee; the annual amount for 2018-2019 is $3,616.92 assessed as follows: $1,205.64 for Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Terms and $602.82 for Spring/Summer 2019 Terms.
Part-time thesis-based graduate students who are Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or Convention Refugees or Protected Persons as defined by Citizenship and Immigration Canada are assessed a program fee; the annual amount for 2018-2019 is $1,831.20 assessed as follows: $610.40 for Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Terms and $305.20 for Spring/Summer 2019 Terms. In addition, part-time thesis-based graduate students who are neither Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or Convention Refugees or Protected Persons as defined by Citizenship and Immigration Canada are assessed an international differential fee; the annual amount for 2018-2019 is $1,808.46 assessed as follows: $602.82 for Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Terms and $301.41 for Spring/Summer 2019 Terms. Thesis-based Graduate students will be charged extra fees in case they enrol in an Alternate Delivery section.
Starting with the 2018-2019 academic year, the price for international graduate tuition has also increased by $4,000 for full-time students and $2,000 for part-time students. To ensure that this change in price will not impact international students’ access to our programs, the university will automatically provide financial support in the same amount to all admitted and continuing full- and part-time students. Please note that the $4,000/2,000 tuition increase, and the corresponding financial support deduction will not be applied to cost-recovery programs or to course-based graduate programs in the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine, including Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Speech-Language Pathology.
- Thesis-based graduate students admitted before Fall 2011 and course-based graduate students:
- Course Instruction Fees: All thesis-based students admitted before Fall 2011 and all course-based graduate students are assessed individual course fees for all courses, projects, and thesis research. There is no maximum Instructional Fee. Fees for a course taken for credit are normally calculated according to the following formula: fee index value x units of fee index (except THES 919 ; see below). The fee index value is a dollar amount that is approved annually by the Board of Governors. The graduate fee index value for Fall 2018/Winter 2019 is $104.02. Fees for an audited course are calculated according to the following formula: fee index value x units of fee index x 1/2. Therefore, the Instructional Fee for a course with 6 fee index units taken for credit is $624.12. The Instructional Fee for a course with 6 fee index units taken for audit is $312.06. (Special Graduate Students may not audit courses.) The units of fee index are shown following the title of each course in Course Listings ), and are indicated by fi.
- Reduced Thesis-Only Fee: For 2018-2019, this Instructional Fee is assessed at a flat rate of $1,167.96 per term. To be assessed the Reduced Thesis-Only Fee for a full-time thesis registration, students must have been admitted before Fall 2011 and meet the following eligibility criteria:
Doctoral Students: must be in a noncost-recovery program; must have been registered full-time (minimum of ★9 course/thesis per term) in at least four Fall or Winter Terms in their graduate program and have been assessed at least 18 fee index units in each of those terms; and must register in THES 919 instead of THES 909 . (THES 919 and THES 909 are both equivalent to ★9 in a term.)
Master’s Students: must be in a noncost-recovery program; must have been registered full-time (minimum of ★9 course/thesis per term) in at least two Fall or Winter Terms in their graduate program and have been assessed at least 18 fee index units in each of those terms; and must register in THES 919 , instead of THES 909 . (THES 919 and THES 909 are both equivalent to ★9 in a term.)
- Extra Course Fees: For thesis-based graduate students admitted before Fall 2011 and course-based graduate students fees for courses extra to a degree program are calculated in the same way as fees for courses that are part of a degree program.
- Program Differential Fee: In addition to Course Instructional Fees, students registered in the following program are assessed a Program Differential Fee:
Master of Business Administration (MBA): Students admitted to this program in Fall 2008 or thereafter are assessed an MBA Program Differential Fee on a course-by-course basis. The 2018-2019 MBA Program Differential Fee is $597.84 per ★3 course. This fee is subject to yearly Instructional Fee increases. There is no maximum MBA Program Differential Fee amount.
Non MBA Students taking MBA Courses are also assessed the MBA Program Differential Fee of $597.84 per ★3 MBA course.
- International Student Differential Fees: Thesis-based graduate students admitted before Fall 2011 and coursed-based students who are neither Canadian Citizens, Permanent Residents, or Convention Refugees or Protected Persons as defined by Citizenship and Immigration Canada are assessed an International Student Differential Fee calculated on and equal to the value of all Instructional Fees and Program Differential Fees assessed (125.39% Differential). If you become a Permanent Resident, Convention Refugee or Protected Person as defined by Citizenship and Immigration Canada and present proof before the end of the term, the Differential Fee will not be assessed in that and subsequent terms. Please submit original proof of your change of immigration status to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research (Killam Centre for Advanced Studies, 2-29 Triffo Hall).
- Starting with the 2018-2019 academic year, the price for international graduate tuition has also increased by $4,000 for full-time students and $2,000 for part-time students. To ensure that this change in price will not impact international students’ access to our programs, the university will automatically provide financial support in the same amount to all admitted and continuing full- and part-time students. Please note that the $4,000/2,000 tuition increase, and the corresponding financial support deduction will not be applied to cost-recovery programs or to course-based graduate programs in the Faculty of Rehabilitation Medicine, including Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Speech-Language Pathology.
- Fall 2018/Winter 2019 Graduate Student Non-Instructional Fee Schedule: In addition to Instructional Fees, all graduate students are assessed Non-Instructional Fees. The Non-Instructional Fees assessed are based upon whether a student is full-time or part-time, and upon whether a student is on-campus or off-campus. Non-Instructional Fees differ between Fall/Winter and Spring/Summer.
Students are assessed Non-Instructional Fees for each term in which they register. The Fall/Winter assessment rates are shown below. The corresponding privileges conferred are explained in Privileges Conferred by Payment of Non-Instructional Fees.

Obtaining and Paying Your Fee Assessment
- Obtaining a Fee Assessment: Students enrolled in Fall/Winter or Spring/Summer are e-mailed a notification to view their Fee Assessment in Bear Tracks (https://www.beartracks.ualberta.ca). E-mail notifications are sent in August/September for students registered in Fall/Winter. Notifications are sent in December/January for students registered in Winter only; in April for students registered in Spring only and in June for Summer only. If students make registration changes they should check their Fee Assessment in Bear Tracks to determine if the change has affected their fee assessment.
- Obtaining a Current Account Balance: It is a student’s responsibility to find out the correct amount of fees owing and to pay this amount on or before the fee payment deadline. Refer to Deadlines for Fee Payment. The account balance can be checked at https://www.beartracks.ualberta.ca. Payments after the fee payment deadline may incur financial penalties (Penalties for Late Payment of Fees ); information on refunds is given in Refunds and Withdrawals. Registration deadlines are listed in Academic Schedule, Dates, and Deadlines .

To set up Internet, Mobile or Telephone banking, follow the procedures provided by your financial institution. The University of Alberta is set up in the same manner as all other bill payments.

This service is available to clients of Royal Bank (RBC), and TD/Canada Trust. This service is not available for Debit Cards with the Visa/Debit Logo.

It is important to note payment deadlines still apply, see Major Deadlines from the Academic Schedule .
To make a payment on the Plastiq website, the cardholder will need to input the student’s first and last name and the seven digit student ID number.

The payment will be applied to the student account within 3-4 business days.
- To initiate your payment, please access the Global Pay for Students platform
- Global Pay’s payment options vary by country and may include wire and online bank transfer. In China only: credit card may be accepted.
- Watch the helpful Global Pay for Students by WU Business Solutions “how to” videos.
- Dishonored Cheques: Payment by dishonored cheque is treated as nonpayment of fees. Please refer to Penalties for Late Payment of Fees for consequences. In addition to the penalties outlined, a $25 charge is assessed for the dishonored cheque itself.
Students will be required to pay by certified cheque or guaranteed funds for any cheque returned due to lack of sufficient funds (NSF) in the account against which the cheque was written.
- Deposits: Students who have paid a deposit to confirm their admission to a program should deduct this from their fee assessment total.
- Student Loans: Alberta students who need financial assistance apply online at Student Aid Alberta (www.studentaid.alberta.ca). Student Connect, the Office of the Registrar’s student service centre, provides information, advising and assistance in government-issued student loans.
Undergraduate students must be registered full-time for the period of their loan. If your loan covers both terms of Fall/Winter, you must be registered for credit in courses with a combined weight of 9 or more in each term in order to have your loan approved. Students must maintain full-time status for the duration of their student loan period to remain eligible for their full-time loan funding. For information on how to process your student loan refer to the Office of the Registrar website at www.registrarsoffice.ualberta.ca.
- How to Process a Loan from Another Provincial Government: All out of province government student loans are available online to the staff in Student Receivables, Financial Services. When you receive notification from Financial Services, please bring your OneCard, SIN Card, and Notice of Assessment to have your loan confirmed. Students wishing to pay by term must present a Student Finance Board Notice of Assessment or Funding Summary Indicating further loan disbursements. Without this document, the tuition and fees for the full year will be deducted.
- Scholarships, Bursaries and Other Financial Assistance: Students with tuition and/or fees being paid for by scholarships, bursaries or other University-processed financial assistance will typically have funds applied to their tuition account balance prior to the tuition deadline. To avoid payment penalties, students’ full installment of fees must be paid by the tuition deadline.
Students who receive direct assistance that is not processed through the University (e.g. grant from an employer) must follow normal fee payment regulations and meet the tuition deadline. Confirmation of enrolment will be provided by the Office of the Registrar upon request.
- Receipts: The Tuition and Education Amounts Certificate (Form T2202A) is the students’ official receipt for income tax purposes. This form can be accessed on Bear Tracks (https://www.beartracks.ualberta.ca). Students who make payments after the production of the certificate will have a revised certificate posted on Bear Tracks. Please review Canadian Revenue Agency requirements.
Scholarship T4a forms can be accessed on Bear Tracks (https://www.beartracks.ualberta.ca). Forms will not be available until February of the following year of when the scholarship was received. Please review Canadian Revenue Agency requirements.
Students requiring proof of payment will be able to access the form on Bear Tracks once the payment has been processed. International students requiring a receipt for Visa entry requirements, will be able to access the receipt on Bear Tracks.
Refunds and Withdrawals
- Refer to Academic Schedule, Dates, and Deadlines for deadline details.
- The Tuition Deposit is nonrefundable, except in cases where a student has paid the deposit and is subsequently denied admission.
- If a student drops a course from a registration before the Registration Deadline, no Instructional Fees will be assessed. If the course change results in a registration status change (e.g., from full-time to part-time), Non-Instructional Fees will also be reassessed accordingly. Course drops can only be processed on Bear Tracks (https://www.beartracks.ualberta.ca) until the registration deadline for the term.
- If a student withdraws from a course after the Registration Deadline and up to the Refund Deadline there will be a 50% reduction in the Instructional Fees assessed for that course. If the course change results in a registration status change, Non-Instructional Fees will also be reassessed.
- Students who withdraw after the Refund Deadline will not receive any reduction in Instructional and Non-Instructional fees assessed.
- Where students have a credit balance as a result of reassessment, Financial Services will issue a refund.
- For course withdrawals after the Registration Deadline the effective date of the withdrawal is the day the Faculty receives the withdrawal form. Students who register and then cease to attend, or never attend, without formally withdrawing will not be eligible for any refund of fees nor will they be exempt from paying assessed fees that are unpaid.
- Fees deadlines are firm and are strictly enforced. Students must ensure that they process and confirm any intended withdrawals by the required deadline since ignorance of the deadline or its consequences will not be accepted as an excuse. No special financial consideration is given to students who must withdraw after the deadlines. Students should be aware that when they withdraw from a course at any time after the Registration Deadline, they have effectively occupied a place in the class for the entire term. Since space in classes is limited, an underlying principle of this policy is to ensure that as many opportunities as possible are left open for students seeking to register. The University treats all students in an equitable fashion by adhering strictly to the deadlines published.
- Students are responsible for the completeness and accuracy of their registrations. Students should validate course changes and any fee assessment changes, by reviewing their Class Timetable and Fee Assessment on Bear Tracks (https://www.beartracks.ualberta.ca).
- Changes from credit to audit: If the change is made during the audit registration period (see Academic Schedule, Dates, and Deadlines ), the assessment for the course will be at the audit rate both for undergraduate students and graduate students.
- Partially Paid Accounts: If the full fee assessment for the term has not been paid upon withdrawal or a change from credit to audit, money may still be owed to the University. Account balances can be checked online at https://www.beartracks.ualberta.ca or Financial Services can be contacted at (780) 492-3000 for an up-to-date Statement of Account.
- Refund Cheques: Financial Services normally issues refunds up to six weeks after the Refund Deadline. Refunds are issued either by cheque or directly to the student bank account if the student provides this information on Bear Tracks. If the student account is overpaid, the student will receive the refund if the registration status remains at full-time. Registration status changes from full-time to part-time will result in student loan refunds being refunded to the National Student Loan Centre. Undergraduate Scholarships and other payments are applied directly to the student tuition account, and once tuition and charges are paid in full, any excess will be refunded to the student. Refunds are generated following the 50% deadline date of each term.
Staff Remissions
University of Alberta staff members are eligible for remission of fees under the terms outlined in their contracts. Remission covers Instructional, Athletics and Recreation fees, PAW Centre fee, and University Health Services fees provided the Request for Remission of Fees form is received by Financial Services prior to the term payment deadline. Staff members are responsible for paying all other assessed fees by the payment deadline; otherwise penalties will apply. Books and supplies are the responsibility of the employee.
Third Party Billing
Any student whose fees are paid by another source is considered a third party/sponsored student.
In accordance with Deadlines for Fee Payment, Penalties for Late Payment of Fees, Obtaining and Paying Your Fee Assessment and Refunds and Withdrawals, Third Party Sponsors will be expected to adhere to University policies with respect to payment deadlines, late payment penalties, instalment charges, withdrawals and so forth. Individual listing or group listings of sponsorship should be forwarded to Student Receivables, Financial Services, well in advance of the Registration deadline. Students are responsible for advising the third party of any changes to the financial record after the initial billing.
If payment is not received by the Payment Deadline, academic and financial penalties will be imposed.
