Summer Course Registration Deadlines:

All students are required to register in the Summer Session if they are taking courses. However, not all students are required to pay fees in order to register.
SUMMER FEES ARE NOT REQUIRED for students continuing in the same degree and who were registered in the 2009 Fall or 2010 Winter Session either full-time for one session or part-time for both sessions. You must register by returning the Registration Form (mailed to students on April 22). Click here for registration instructions if you are not required to pay fees.
SUMMER FEES ARE REQUIRED for students continuing in the same degree who were not registered in the 2009 Fall or 2010 Winter Session either full-time for one session or part-time for both sessions. All students who are beginning a new degree in the Summer Session are required to pay Summer fees. Registration instructions are below for students who are required to pay fees.
1. How do I register?
As of the 2008 Fall Session, the Office of Student Accounts no longer mails paper invoices to students. You are required to read the information on the Office of Student Accounts’ website (www.fees.utoronto.ca) and view your account on the Student Web Service (ROSI). Your account can be viewed in two different ways: invoice format which groups the charges assessed and any payments or credits; or detailed transactions which lists all transactions posted to your account in chronological order.
Fees may be paid on-line, by telephone, at a bank machine, or at a teller. If you are paying at a bank machine or teller, you will need to print a copy of your account in invoice format to take to the bank.
If you are registering for the Summer Session but your account does not show Summer Session tuition fees, contact your Liaison Officer in the OISE Registrar’s Office (see Whom do I Contact).
Students are expected to monitor their fee account on the Student Web Service (ROSI) and make payments as necessary. Additional information about tuition fees is available at www.fees.utoronto.ca.
Students who are paying fees from outside Canada may forward payment by certified cheque or money order (payable to the University of Toronto) in Canadian funds directly to the Student Accounts Office, University of Toronto, 215 Huron Street, Toronto, Canada, M5S 1A2. Be sure to include your name and student number.
Fees must be paid by the registration deadline. Changes to full time/part-time status should be requested by completing the bottom section of the Summer Registration Information letter (mailed from the OISE Registrar’s Office) and returning it to the OISE Registrar’s Office, Graduate Studies Unit by the above deadline; changes to full time/part-time status cannot be made retroactively. Restrictions may apply.
Every effort is made to ensure that your ROSI account is correct. However, if any discrepancies occur, you will be notified and your account will be adjusted accordingly.
Payment of fees constitutes registration and an agreement to abide by the rules and regulations of the University of Toronto, School of Graduate Studies, and the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education of the University of Toronto.
NOTE:
Students continuing in the same degree: If you are not required to register and do not intend to do so, it is not necessary to notify our office; the tuition fee charges will automatically be cancelled and your account balance adjusted accordingly.
Students beginning a new degree: If you are not beginning your program in the session indicated on your Offer of Admission, you must make a written request to change your start date. Your request should be submitted to the OISE Registrar’s Office, Graduate Studies Unit. (Note: A request to change to a Summer Session start date must be accompanied by a Course Add/Drop Form signed by the instructor of the Summer course you wish to take. Summer fees are charged to students beginning their program in the Summer Session.)
2. What happens if I do not register by the deadline?
If you do not register by the deadline (May 7 for courses beginning in May; July 9 for courses beginning in July), the courses in which you have enrolled will be removed from your record and your invitation to register will be cancelled. Course credit will not be given if you do not register.
3. How do I arrange a tuition fee payment deferral?
If you have been awarded funding from the University, have an external scholarship greater than the minimum first payment of your tuition fees, or have a Graduate Assistantship (GA), a Teaching Assistantship (TA), or a Teacher Education Program Assistantship (TEPA), you may have your fee payment temporarily deferred. Applications for fee deferrals are available on the Student Services website at www.oise.utoronto.ca/studentservices. If you have any questions regarding this deferral, contact the OISE Student Services Office, 416-978-2469.
If you have applied for OSAP and wish to defer your fees in order to register, take your OSAP Notice of Assessment and a copy of your Fee Invoice to the OISE Student Services Office, 8th Floor, Room 8-225. When you receive your OSAP funds, you should promptly arrange to pay at least the minimum first payment of your fees. If your OSAP document has not arrived, contact the OISE Student Services Office.
If your fees are going to be paid by a non-University of Toronto source which requires a bill from the University, attach third party authorization and return a copy of your Fee Invoice to the Student Accounts Office, University of Toronto, 215 Huron Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M5S 1A2.
4. Where do I pick up my OSAP (or other provincial student loan program) documents?
OSAP (and other provincial student loan program) documents will be available for pick-up at the OISE Student Services Office, 8th Floor, Room 8-225 once classes begin and upon presentation of a copy of your Fee Invoice. Off-campus students should contact the OISE Student Services Office, 416-978-2277.
If you will not be receiving OSAP, you must complete a Continuation of Interest-Free Status/Confirmation of Enrolment Form (Schedule 2) to keep your loans in interest-free status while you study. Once you have registered (and provided you are in a 60% course load), complete an Interest-Free Status Form at the OISE Student Services Office. Leave the form for authorization and return in two days to pick it up and take it to the Admissions and Awards Office where it will be entered online to advise your lender(s) of your registration status. It is very important that you request that this form be completed each time you register to avoid having your loans go into repayment and accrue interest. The Schedule 2 may not be completed after the end of your study period end-date. The forms are available from the OISE Student Services Office, 8th Floor, Room 8-225.
5. If I withdraw from the session, will I get a refund?
The date on which the OISE Registrar’s Office, Graduate Studies Unit receives written notification of withdrawal from the session is the date used in determining a fee refund, if any. The Refund Schedule can be found at www.fees.utoronto.ca. A minimum charge of $216.00 in respect of academic fees will be assessed to any student who withdraws on or after the published date for the first day of classes for the Summer Session.
6. What am I able to do on the Student Web Service (SWS)?
• add and drop courses
• change your PIN
• update personal information (telephone number, address, email address, etc.)
• check fees account balance and details
• request a transcript
• view grades
7. Whom do I notify if my immigration status changes?
Notify the Registrar’s Office, Graduate Studies Unit of any changes as soon as they are in effect. Such changes may have fee implications.
8. How do I get my Student/Library Card (called the TCard)?
TCards are available to new students only; returning students continue to use their current card. TCards will be available from the TCard Office, Robarts Research Library, Room 2054A, 2nd Floor, 130 St. George St. You will be required to provide two pieces of identification: 1) photo ID such as a passport or driver’s licence; and 2) a document from the University which bears your name and student number (see www.library.utoronto.ca/services/ for additional information). Part-time students beginning their program of study in off-campus courses should contact Pat Serafini in the OISE Library at pserafini@oise.utoronto.ca or phone (416-978-1903), or Fax (416-926-4745) concerning receipt of their student I.D. card.
9. How do I get an email account?
All students are required to have a university-issued email account. As the university will be communicating with you through email, it is essential that you have a UTORid account and to ensure the email address is added to your ROSI record. Your UTORid account may be set up at www.utorid.utoronto.ca.
10. Where can I find out about information and technology resources?
The Education Commons provides services associated with libraries, distance learning, computing and media centres to meet the information and technology needs of the OISE community. More information on how the Education Commons can support your work at OISE may be obtained from www.oise.utoronto.ca/ec.
11. I have to write a thesis as part of my program requirements. Is there any information to help me prepare?
Be sure to refer to the OISE Guidelines for Theses and Orals. Also, be sure to read the Ethical Review information at www.research.utoronto.ca/for-researchers-administrators/ethics/.

Master’s students who are completing the final requirements in their program of study in the Summer Session must submit a completed Application to Graduate to the OISE Registrar’s Office, Graduate Studies Unit by July 15, 2010.
Master’s students (non-thesis option): to be eligible to graduate in November, the OISE Registrar’s Office, Graduate Studies Unit must receive by September 14, 2010, all grades and, if applicable, notification of the satisfactory completion of the major research paper or comprehensive examination.

13. I am a Master’s student. Will I have to pay a Balance Degree Fee when I graduate?
Master’s students are required to pay a minimum Degree Fee determined by the length of program to which you were admitted. The “Balance Degree Fee” is assessed at the end of a Master’s program, and if the total academic fees paid to date are less than the minimum Degree Fee, you are required to pay the difference.
