withdrawal and refund policy. Study Permits are issued based on letters of admission to Durham College, so
International Students are expected to attend this college. There will be no refunds for withdrawal requests
received after the 10th official day of the semester. Failure to attend does not constitute a withdrawal.

the 10th official day of the semester no refund will be issued. The refund amount is outlined in our withdrawal and
refund policy.

Please note:

 All students must complete and submit an official Withdrawal Form to cancel fees owing or to be eligible for
a refund.

fees paid, less an administrative fee of $500.

No refund, in whole or in part, will be processed for students who withdraw after the tenth day of the semester. If a
student has opted to pay fees by instalment (i.e. payment plan B), they are still responsible for the balance of fees
owing for that semester. Tuition fees that have been paid for future semesters will be refunded.
