ABOUT FLYWIRE
Algonquin College has partnered with Flywire to offer an innovative and streamlined way to make a payment from your home country. Founded by a former international student, Flywire’s mission is to save money for international students and their families that would otherwise be lost on bank fees and unfavorable foreign exchange rates.

HOW TO MAKE A PAYMENT USING FLYWIRE:

  1. Go to Algonquincollege.flywire.com
  2. Select your preferred payment method from the options provided. Options may include bank transfer, debit/credit card in your home currency, electronic payment, or other local options.
  3. Create your account or log into your existing Flywire account, and then enter some basic information to initiate your payment booking.
  4. Follow the instructions provided to send funds to Flywire. For bank transfers, follow the instructions provided to send your funds. Depending on your bank, payment may be made online, in person, or over the phone. For debit/ credit card payments, enter your card details online to complete your payment in your home currency.
  5. Track your payment by logging into your Flywire account at any time. Receive text and email status updates each step of the way, including a confirmation when your payment has been delivered to your institution.

The College is able to see the date the payment was initiated on Flywire, the date Flywire received the payment and the date the payment was delivered to the College. Please allow 3 business days for processing after Flywire has delivered the payment to the College. The date that the payment was received by Flywire will be honoured, and not the date it was delivered to the College.

IMPORTANT NOTE: For all payments made outside of Canada using Flywire, please note that if a refund is required, the funds will be returned to the originating source (i.e. person making the payment). Therefore, it is advisable for students not to make payments through an Agent for this reason.

Tuition Deposit Payments for Domestic Students

All domestic full-time students, new and returning, who have not applied for OSAP, must pay a $500.00 non-refundable Tuition Deposit in their initial term of an academic year. This non-refundable $500.00 deposit payment secures their seat in that program for the year and is put towards the balance of fees owing for that term. Algonquin College students who have applied for OSAP are eligible for a deferral of their $500.00 non-refundable tuition deposit on their ACSIS account. Please view the Payment Due Dates site for more detailed due date information.

Upon payment or deferral of the $500.00 non-refundable Tuition Deposit, the remaining fees are deferred automatically and the student is provided with an email indicating their Balance Due Date. The Balance Due Date will be three weeks after the start of their term. If a student is late paying that remaining balance, they will be assessed a $150.00 late payment penalty.


Tuition Fee Payments for Domestic Students

All domestic full-time students, returning in a subsequent term of an academic year must pay or defer their full term fees by the Fees Due Date. Please view the Payment Due Dates site for more detailed due date information. If a student is late paying that remaining balance, they will be assessed a $150.00 late payment penalty.


Fee Deferments for Domestic Students

A fee deferment is an agreement with Algonquin College that allows you until three weeks after the start of your term to pay your tuition fees.

After a student has paid the $500.00 non-refundable Tuition Deposit for their initial term of the academic year, the remaining fees are deferred automatically.

If a student who is returning in a subsequent term of an academic year cannot pay their full term fees by the Fees Due Date, they have the option to instead defer their fees at no-charge on their Algonquin College ACSIS account. The student is then provided with an email explaining the terms of the deferral, the balance of their fees due and their Balance Due Date which will be three weeks after the start of their term.

Note: If a student is late deferring their fees, or is late paying their remaining balance, they will be assessed a $150.00 late payment penalty. This penalty will only be charged a maximum of once per term.

Account Balance: You can check your fees balance, at any time, through ACSIS under the menu item – Account Balance.


Students in a Full-Time Program with a Part-Time Load

The full amount of the part-time fees is due at the time of registration for students who are registered in a full-time program, but have a part-time load. All domestic part-time students must pay a $250.00 part-time refundable tuition deposit upon registration into their courses if they cannot pay the full balance at that time. The fees would then be deferred until three weeks after the start of their term and would be due on their Balance Due Date. If a student is late paying that remaining balance, they will be assessed a $150.00 late payment penalty.


Tuition Fee Payments for International Students

All new full-time International students must pay their full term fees by the due date listed on their Algonquin College Letter of Acceptance. Returning full-time International students must pay their full term fees by the Fees Due Date.

Note: If a new student is late paying their fees, they may risk losing their seat in the program. If a returning student is late paying their fees, they will be assessed a $150.00 late payment penalty.


Fee Deferments for International Students

A fee deferment is an agreement with Algonquin College that allows you to defer the payment of your fees until three weeks after the start of your term.

If a returning International student cannot pay their full term fees by the Fees Due Date, they have the option to instead defer their fees with a minimum non-refundable deferral deposit payment of $2,200.00. The student is then provided with an email explaining the terms of the deferral, the balance of their fees due and their balance due date which will be three weeks after the start of their term. The $2,200.00 deferral deposit is non-refundable.

Note: If a student is late deferring their fees, or is late paying their remaining balance, they will be assessed a $150.00 late payment penalty. This penalty will only be charged a maximum of once per term.

Account Balance: You can check your fees balance, at any time, through ACSIS under the menu item – Account Balance.
