Deferrals for students with not proven fee residency status

The Minist猫re de l'脡ducation et de l'Enseignement sup茅rieur (MEES) requires all students who are citizens or permanent residents of Canada to provide proof of their status in order not to be charged the international rate of tuition fees. Those who wish to qualify for the Qu茅bec rate of tuition fees must also provide proof of Qu茅bec residency along with proof of Canadian citizenship. This means that many new students are initially billed at the International or out of province fee rate, until such time as they can provide the documentation that will support a lower fee rate.

The University knowing this, reviews the information that was provided at the time of admission to evaluate if a student is expected to pay fees at either the Quebec rate or the Canadian (out of province) rate. Student Accounts does provide a fee deferral to these students prior to the first bill being issued. This fee deferral appears on your account as an anticipated (pre-authorized) credit. This amount may be deducted from the current amount due on your Account Summary by Term on Minerva and is exempt from interest charges. The deferral is an estimate of the charges to be reversed and once your status is finalized, there may be a balance to pay or be credited.

You will be sent an email advising you of the reason why a fee deferral has been applied to their account. If it is felt that the deferral should be changed (i.e. you expect to be at the Quebec vs the Canadian (out of province) fee rate), then you should contact student.accounts [at] mcgill.ca (Student Accounts) to request that the deferral be modified, providing the reason for the request.

All fee deferrals for residency will expire either when a residency change of status is processed for the term, or at the end of the first registered term. All documents must be submitted by the last day of classes of the current term in which the change of status has occurred. Documentation received after this time will affect fee rates for subsequent terms only. Requirements are available on the Legal Documents site.
