Payment Options

Pay according to the Due Date(s) and Balance located on your Online Statement of Account.

For non-graduate, full time students registered in the Fall/Winter academic year, we offer two fee installment due dates: August and December.

Typically, first year students in a first entry program can expect a first installment due date on the first business day of August and upper year students can expect a first installment due date in mid-August. The second instalment due date is the first business day in December for all non-graduate students.

There are some exceptions. Fee due dates vary by academic level and enrolment activity. Please consult your Online Statement of Account to view your fees due dates.

Late penalties will be assessed monthly at a rate of 1.5% of the overdue balance. For example, based on an overdue balance of $4,500, the interest charges would be approximately $2.25 per day. The monthly accumulation of these charges will be added to accounts on the last business day of each month. Please ensure your tuition payment reaches our office by the tuition deadline to avoid such penalties.

NEW FOR 2024-2025

HOW IT WORKS

Western is offering students a flexible payment plan option for a fee.

Graduate students can request enrollment in the plan each term. If approval is granted, 1/3 of the term balance plus the $50 Payment Plan Fee will be due on the first installment deadline on your Statement of Account. The remaining 2/3 of balance will be split into 2 equal installments.

COST

$50 non-refundable fee for Graduate students per term. 

DEADLINES

The deadline to enroll in the plan for undergraduate students in the 2024-2025 academic year has passed.

The deadline for Graduate Winter 2025 students to enroll in the plan is your first installment due date on your Online Statement of Account.

ELIGIBILITY

-Currently registered in courses for the Winter 2025 academic term.
-Have a balance for the Winter 2025 academic term.
-Have no amount owing from a previous term.

OSAP AND ANTICIPATED AID

If your 2024/25 OSAP entitlement and Anticipated Aid (Western University scholarships, bursaries or awards) will cover or exceed the amount of fees owing then enrollment in a payment plan is not required.

RESIDENCE

If you will be living in Residence for the 2024/25 academic year, please DO NOT apply for a flexible payment plan until your housing charges have been added to your Statement of Account. If you apply prior to your charges being billed, Residence charges will not be included on your payment plan and you will be required to pay the balance of those fees by the due date on your Statement of Account.

OTHER CONSIDERATIONS

If you have outstanding fees from a previous term, you will not be eligible to participate in the plan unless the previous term's fees have been paid in full by the plan’s enrolment deadline.

If an increase of financial support (including any OSAP funding) becomes available after the plan has been implemented and results in a credit balance, the plan remains in place for the term (payment plan fee continues to be non-refundable) and the credit balance will reduce as installment amounts become effective and are applied to your student account. Only credit balances exceeding the remaining installments owing under the plan will be eligible for refund.

Once your plan for the academic year/term has been processed, the installments amounts and due dates will be firm. New fees applied to your account after the plan has been processed will not be included with the active plan and your monthly installments will not be adjusted. You are responsible for ensuring that you are maintaining your installment payments and monitoring your Statement of Account.

Please make payment by the payment plan installment due dates to avoid late payment penalties.

Late penalties will be assessed monthly at a rate of 1.5% of the overdue balance. For example, based on an overdue balance of $4,500, the interest charges would be approximately $2.25 per day. The monthly accumulation of these charges will be added to accounts on the last business day of each month. Please ensure your tuition payment reaches our office by the tuition deadline to avoid such penalties.
