When will my tuition be assessed?
Tuition is assessed one month prior to the beginning of the term (August – Fall/Winter term, April – Spring term, June – Summer term).
Where will my tuition fees be posted?
Tuition and ancillary fees can be found on your Student Financial History on your my.brocku.ca student portal.
When is tuition due?
Tuition is due on the first day of classes. This year is September 8, 2021 for the Fall term, and January 10, 2022 for the Winter term. The first day of classes for each term can be found on our Important Dates web page https://brocku.ca/important-dates/.
How can I pay for my tuition?
The fastest, most efficient way to make a payment for tuition is through your online domestic bank account. Add Brock University as a payee, use your 7-digit student number as the account number (if your bank requires a 9-digit account number, add 00 before your 7-digit student number). Electronic bank payments can take 3-5 business days to process, so keep this in mind when making your payment! We also accept cheques via mail. However, we only have staff on-site a few days a week to process these payments.

I see different amounts on my Student Financial History and I’m not sure what to pay?
Your Student Financial History will reflect all of your payments with due dates for each term that academic year. Fall$ Due as of September 8, 2021: This number reflects your total amount for Fall 2021 tuition due by September 8, 2021. Please note, once paid in full, the number will remain here for the academic year. Due Now: This is what you need to pay for Fall tuition by September 8, 2021. *If you do not have a credit/scholarship/award/bursary that has already been applied to your account, the amount at Due Now should match the balance at Fall $ Due as of September 8, 2021. Please note, after you have paid this amount in full and it is reflected on your student account, the amount at Due Now should be $0. Total Amount Due: This number reflects what is left to pay for the Winter term. If you have paid all of your tuition for the Fall term, this number should then match what is outstanding for your Winter $ Due as of January 10, 2022.
How do I see my tuition fees from previous years?
If you would like to access your tuition fees from previous years, you can do so by changing the date at top of your Student Financial History (ie. 2020), pressing ‘Go’ then clicking ‘+ Financial History’ near the bottom of your screen.
What is flat-fee tuition?
Students registered in 3.5 credits or less are charged per-credit for their tuition. Students registered in 4.0 credits or more are charged on a flat-fee tuition structure. For more information, please visit: https://brocku.ca/safa/tuition-and-fees/overview/. All courses registered or withdrawn after the appropriate drop date count as attempts. Students who have attempted 4.0 or more are charged a flat fee for tuition and are not entitled to a refund of fees for courses withdrawn.
What does a Due Now in brackets mean on my Student Financial History?
If your ‘Due Now’ amount is in brackets it means there is a credit on your account. You do not currently owe any money to Brock. You may submit a refund request online at: https://brocku.ca/safa/contact-us/request-a-refund/. Alternatively, you may choose to leave the credit on your account to be applied to future fees.
Can I set up a payment plan?
Brock University does not offer payment plans of any kind. You may wish to set up an automatic bill payment plan with your banking institution if you wish, this way, you can elect to have a certain amount of money sent to Brock at specific times to reduce your overall balance owing. For more information on how to make a payment, please visit: https://brocku.ca/safa/tuition-and-fees/making-a-payment/.
Can I get a receipt for my payment?

You can view how much you owe for tuition and fees, and track all payments made to Brock, online via your student self-serve portal under the ‘Student Financial History’ tab. This is always available to you, and is a running balance/receipt of all transactions associated with your record at Brock University. The University does not mail statements to prompt payment. Students are financially responsible for all tuition and related fees associated with registered courses. Additional information may be found online at: https://brocku.ca/safa/tuition-and-fees/access-your-account/.
Why can't I register in courses?
It may be due to an overdue balance. The University is only permitted to lift restrictions to allow for additional registration if the balance owing is $4,800 or less. You will have to reduce your balance to $4,800 or less in order to register in courses.
Why can't I see my grades or order a transcript?
