Pay at a Canadian Financial Institution

Take your Student Account Invoice, along with your fee payment, to your financial institution. You can pay a teller or at a bank machine. 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 some time in the future, you will have all of the necessary information if you have the front of your invoice stamped by the teller or attach the transaction slip to your invoice.

Pay Using Telephone or PC Banking

Three easy steps will allow you to make your fee payments using this option. Here's how:

  • Start by setting Seneca up on your list of 'payees' with your financial institution.
  • When asked for your 'account number', provide your 9 digit student ID number.
  • Specify your payment amount.

Your fee payment will then be forwarded to us for processing, and applied to your student account.

Pay by Telephone Using Your Credit Card

Call us at 416-493-4144 (extension 2800). Be ready to provide your name, student number, program of study and your credit card number and expiry date to one of our Registration Officers and we will process your fee payment over the telephone. If we happen to be away or the line is busy, you can leave a message and we will call you back as soon as possible.

We accept credit card payment by Visa, MasterCard, and American Express.

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 at one of the addresses shown at the bottom of this page.

Alternatively, you may prefer to send this information to the fax number for your campus as detailed below.

Pay in Person

If one of the other options doesn't work for you, come to a Registration and Records Department to make your payment in person. Just bring your Student Account Invoice along with your payment. Valid in-person payment methods are:

  • Visa, MasterCard, or American Express credit cards
  • Interac Direct Payment
  • Certified cheque made payable to Seneca College
  • Money order made payable to Seneca College
  • Cash

Please note that we cannot accept personal cheques.

Payment Option A

Full fees should be paid before the semester begins, no later than the due date noted on the attached invoice. Students paying full fees by the due date will not incur late payment or payment deferral fee charges.

Back to Top

Payment Option B

For those experiencing financial difficulty, a minimum deposit of $400.00 may be paid by the fees due date indicated on the attached 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. Those selecting Payment Option B must complete a promissory note for the balance of fees owing, indicating when the balance will be paid in full. The document is required in order to hold your place in the program. In order to ensure the promissory note is completed before registration occurs, access to SIRIS will be blocked for purposes of registration. The block will be released as soon as we have your signed document on file.
     
  3. In the event the balance of fees outstanding is not paid by the contracted date on the promissory note, ensure you visit the Registration Office and sign a revised promissory note establishing a new plan. If the Registration Office does not hear from you, a second $65.00 late fee payment charge will be applied to your student account

Payment Option C

This option only applies to students who have already submitted an application to OSAP prior to the fees due date.

  1. A minimum deposit of $400.00 may be paid by the fees due date indicated on the attached invoice if you complete a promissory note at the registration office.
     
  2. A $65.00 OSAP deferral fee charge will be applied to your student account.
     
  3. Those selecting Payment Option C must complete a promissory note for the balance of fees owing, indicating when the balance will be paid in full. The document is required in order to hold your place in the program. In order to ensure the promissory note is completed, access to SIRIS will be blocked for purposes of registration. The block will be released as soon as we have your signed document on file.
     
  4. In the event there is a delay in the processing of your Ontario Student Assistance (OSAP) loan documents for reasons beyond your control, and beyond the contracted date on your promissory note, a new promissory note may be arranged by visiting the Registration Office. However, if there is a delay and your agreed payment date comes and goes and you do not complete a new promissory note, a $65.00 late fee payment charge will be added to your account.

Important Note

Students who withdraw from the college no later than the 10th day of scheduled classes (see your Critical Dates flyer), and submit a notification letter to the Registration Office within that timeframe, are entitled to receive a refund of tuition. Only $100.00 of the tuition paid will be retained by the college to cover administrative costs. However, late payment and payment deferral fees will not be refunded.
     
  2. Students who withdraw after the 10th day of scheduled classes are not entitled to a refund, and are required to pay any balance of fees outstanding for the semester.
     
  3. The above fee payment options pertain to domestic students only. International students must pay full fees by the published due dates.
